Description

On the way to the Kesch Hut, hike over the Sertig Pass. Shortly after the pass, the short detour to the Ravais-ch lakes is worthwhile. Today you will spend the night in the Kesch Hut, newly built in 2001, which is considered a model hut in the Alpine region in terms of energy supply and concept. Among other things, it has been awarded the European Union's eco-label and is the winner of the Swiss Solar Prize.

Stage 3: Kesch hut SAC - Es-cha hut SAC

Geheimtipp

On your way to the Kesch hut, a short detour to the Ravais-ch lakes is always worthwhile and only takes about 20 minutes. You will be rewarded with a beautiful panorama. The two mountain lakes Lai da Ravais-ch Suot and Lai da Ravais-ch Sur are located in a small valley at the foot of the mighty Piz Murtelet. Depending on the incidence of light, the lakes glow from turquoise to green to black.

Ausrüstung

Good mountain boots, weatherproof and warm clothing, rain protection, food for the hiking stages (packed lunches can also be obtained in the huts), enough water, sun and head protection, medicine box, maps for orientation and hiking poles
