Description

It was closed for eight years due to the landslide of Piz Cengalo: in 2025, the new path to the Sciora Hut will be opened. The lowest section of the route is the same as before: you can start at the grottos in Bondo and climb east of the Bundäsca through the forest to Prä. Alternatively, follow the dirt road that starts at the parking lot behind the church of Bondo, cross the Bundäsca at an altitude of about 1000 m and then join the path to Prä. From here, the route follows the old road at the bottom of the valley for about 1 km.

And now comes the new part: The route branches off to the left of the road – the path climbs and leads above the rock ledge that stretches into the valley at about 1400 m. At about 1600 m the first suspension bridge is waiting. The route now crosses the steep slopes below the I Mot and the Piz Grand, in constant ups and downs at an altitude of about 1700 to 1800 m. Whenever the forest opens up, there are magnificent views of the Sciora Group, the Sasc Furä Hut and the gravel fields of the 2017 landslide.

Around Naravedar you come to the old hut path and follow it for the last 300 meters of altitude to the Capanna di Sciora.

Sicherheitshinweis

The path leads over several suspension bridges.

Ausrüstung
