Via Son Giachen: Scuol - Guarda

This stage takes us from Scuol (with its old village centre in the lower district of Scuol-Sot, which is well worth seeing) on the sunny side of the Lower Engadine (Engiadina Bassa) to a few villages on sun terraces in the valley, from where you can enjoy a wonderful view southwards into the Alps.
First we come to Ftan with a church worth seeing and well-preserved, old Engadine houses. After crossing the Tasnan stream, Ardez follows with its castle on a rock, visible from afar, one of the landmarks of the Lower Engadine. Finally, via the hamlet of Bos-cha, we come to Guarda, which is heavily frequented by tourists, known for its Engadine houses decorated with sgraffito and decorated with flowers - a popular subject for photographers.
