Piz Borel und Piz Cavradi

Long tour to the Ticino border with a visit to the Maighelshütte
Details
Description
At the Oberalp Pass, a short descent to Alp Milez awaits us first. Here we put on our skins and follow the markings to the Maighels hut, which we leave to the left for the time being. It's a long, drawn-out descent until we reach the Maighels glacier at the height of Piz Alpetta. We gain height in regular hairpin bends and our destination, Piz Borel, is right in front of us. We head for the saddle on the far left and make a ski depot. Now we cross the rocky and partly airy ridge to the summit. At the summit cross, we can enjoy fantastic views to the north as far as the Oberalp Pass and to the south to the peaks of Ticino.
The descent over the snow-covered glacier is a dream, but unfortunately over far too quickly. Unfortunately, the valley floor is so flat that we have to put our skins back on. Then we stop off at the Maihghelshütte.
As a final highlight of the day, we climb up to Piz Cavradi where more powder snow slopes await us all the way down to Tschamut. There is an hourly train from Tschamut in both directions.
Alternative: If the wine tasted too good at lunchtime, we can save Piz Cavradi for another time and descend directly to Tschamut.
Geheimtipp

Ausrüstung

Directions
From the Oberalp Pass we descend to Alp Milez and follow the markings of the path to the Maighelshütte. But we always stay in the valley until we branch off at the height of the Piz Alpetta to the Maighelsgletscher. In wide hairpin bends we reach the gap at the foot of Piz Ravetsch. Here we make ski depot. We cross the ridge to the summit and we go back the same way. Descent along the ascent track. The ascent to Piz Cavradi begins just behind the Maighelshütte. We cross the summit in an easterly direction and descend over the northern slopes to Chamut
