Description

From dawn to dusk, but especially during the day, this forest loop on the northern slope below San Jon offers plenty of variety and enough shade to master the steep climb.
At the start at the mineral water fountain in Scuol Plaz, head south through the old part of the village to the covered wooden bridge and up to the Gurlaina campsite. Here it goes over a steep gravel path directly to the road to S-charl. Steadily ascending steeply over forest paths, we cross this tarred road twice more and reach the "Bellavista" viewpoint on a hill with an inviting bench and a wide view over the entire village. The subsequent descent (rooted and blocked) zigzags back to the tarred road between Gurlaina and Scuol, which we follow downhill for 100 meters and then turn right into the forest on the Helsana Trail. This flat trail leads up to Pradella to the Aual da Triazza. Along this stream we climb to the right to the clearing "Plan Grond" and along the clearing we reach Scuol again. Parallel to the Helsana Walking Trail, the trail leads to the "Val Lischana" stream. Here the route branches off to the right and leads to the steel bridge at the source of the Lischana. After crossing the Inn at this lowest point of the tour, we always run westwards on tarred and cobblestone roads back to the old village part of Scuol and thus the start and finish point of the round.

Geheimtipp

  • The San Jon Riding Stable and Saloon offers a nice ambience with a restaurant and terrace
