Description

From Pontresina railway station, follow the road that winds its way into Val Roseg. Shortly before the Roseg Glacier restaurant, the valley suddenly opens up with an awe-inspiring view. After the restaurant, follow the path further into the valley until the path winds up to Alp Ota on the right. At the crossroads, the trail continues up to Fuorcla Surlej with impressive views of Piz Bernina and Piz Roseg. After a rest, it's time to look forward to the winding descent, with completely new views of the glistening Engadin lakes in the Engadin. It feels like you're flying when you get to Lej dals Chöds, before diving under the trees and tackling the final descent to St. Moritz. Finish the run at the tributary to Lej da San Murezzan, where you can dangle your legs in the refreshing water to cool off.
