Details

Description

We start in Maloja Posta and walk past the cross-country skiing centre and the Hotel Maloja Palace to the lake. The frozen lake gives a feeling of vastness that is usually more familiar from coastal regions than from the high mountains. We walk straight on across the lake to Sils Maria. The path is officially open from mid-January.
For the way back, the post bus or the Engadin bus leaves Sils Maria about every 30 min. Those who still have energy can either walk back across the lake or take the hiking trail on the south-eastern shore of the lake, which leads via Isola to Maloja.

Geheimtipp

Those who wish can stop halfway in Isola at the Hotel Restaurant Lagrev.

Sicherheitshinweis

Please pay attention to restrictions/road closures.

Ausrüstung

Occasionally a cold wind blows. So don't forget your protective jacket, scarf, hat and gloves! On sunny days take sunscreen and sun cream with you.
