Details

Description

Starting at the parking lot Orden, the road initially runs to the Salecina Vacation and Education Center. This first section lies between the sunny circular trail Orden. Afterwards, a wide forest path, also used by experienced cross-country skiers, snowshoers, or ski tourers, leads up toward the lake. The trees thin out repeatedly, giving views of the impressive Piz da la Margna. Even though the Cavloccio restaurant is hibernating during winter, a rest on the terrace is worthwhile, with a view up to Piz Salecina. For those who want to hike further: the winter trail is tracked further up to just before Plan Canin. After a narrow passage, the valley opens with views towards Muretto Pass, Pizzi dei Rossi, and the Forno valley.

Hidden Gem

Bring a picnic and tea! The restaurant at Cavloc Lake is closed in winter, but there are sunny benches.

Safety Note

Easy walking trail.
If there is frequent thawing and refreezing in winter, some spots can be icy and slippery.

Equipment

Normal winter hiking equipment.
