KtGR Preda | Cna d'Es-cha | Val Plazbi/Tuors/Tisch | Bergün

Section from Albula Pass road at Punt Granda (point 2251m) to Chamanna d'Es-cha CAS (Es-cha SAC hut)
The beautiful trail over Alp Alvra is still easy to drive at the bottom. Gradually, the single trail to Fuorcla Gualdauna becomes steeper and steeper. Here you have to put in all your strength to stay in the saddle. Pushing would probably be gentler on forces here. From the Fuorcla Gualdauna you will see the Chamanna d'Es-cha CAS (Es-cha SAC hut) for the first time. From the Fuorcla Gualdauna a wonderful high-altitude trail, easy to ride and only slightly ascending into the Val d'Es-cha. This section is embedded in a quite steep slope but on a good trail. Then it's over the Ova Pischa stream. After that, the trail becomes a bit steeper again and also a bit blocked in between. As a result, one or the other probably have to descend here and there briefly.

The Es-cha-Hütte or Chamanna d'Es-cha (Romansh) and is located at 2,594 m above sea level.M above the Upper Engadine at the southern foot of the Piz Kesch. The panorama at the hut includes the Bernina Group. The cottage sleeps 50 and is managed in the summer season from mid-June to mid-October, as well as in the winter season from the end of February to mid-April.

Sliding section after the Alp digl chants or from the mountain stream 'Ava da Plazbi' up towards Alp Muotta Sur: For these almost 250 uphill altitude meters you need about 35 minutes
