Description
The hike starts in Guarda, the Schellen-Ursli village on a sunny terrace high above the Inn. Engadine building culture, goats, local products and the Schellen-Ursli story characterise the village. A small road leads relatively level to the hamlet of Bos-cha, before the path descends on the same road to the model village of Romanesque residential culture, Ardez.
