Description

Our start is at the parking lot in Vnà, where the PostAuto stop is located. We follow the path towards Alp Discholas. The alpine farm road leads through Swiss pine and larch forest. After a steep ascent, you reach Alp Discholas. Now opens the mountain panorama of the Lower Engadine Dolomites on the southeast side. Another 500 meters of elevation with challenging character await until you reach the summit ridge. This section is doable for experienced mountain runners. After just under 7 km of distance covered, you reach the summit of Piz Arina, where you should pause and enjoy the panoramic view. After the break, you can look forward to a varied descent. After 9 km you are at 2100 m and turn left towards Vnà. The trail becomes quieter. In this section, note that suckler cow herds may be present, from which you should keep a distance.
