Intro
Lovely countryside alternating with wide-open snowfields and stretches of sparse forest are the features of this circular tour in the popular Pany snowshoe trekking area – and plenty of cosy mountain inns invite you to take a break.
Description
From Pany, the postbus passes the Pany ski lift en route to the Riedwies stop. This marks the start of the snowshoe trail, with gentle ascents through "sugar-coated" pastures and stretches of sparse forest. You pass homely Alpine huts before reaching the idyllic Alpine farmhouse settlement of Tratza. From the farmhouse inn, you'll enjoy stunning all-round views of Prättigau Valley.
Then the trail climbs again to reach the highest point of the tour at Calondis (1,730 meters). From here on, the scenery alternates between open flat areas and stretches of forest until you reach Bova hamlet and the Bodahütte. This hut's cosy parlour and terrace are worth a trip on their own! The trail makes a turn here. You now have the options of renting a toboggan or continuing your trek through the snow in snowshoes.
You proceed at a stately pace across open countryside with sporadic farmhouses, down to the Tüfelstein, or Devil's Stone. Strange round indentations mark the surface of the stone. According to legend, they represent the devil’s petrified fingerprints. Then the route descends gently to the destination near Pany ski lift. Pany (1,251 m), with its scattering of houses built on a slope, is the tourism centre of Luzein commune. With its various sub-districts, this commune extends far across the sunlit southern slope of the central Prättigau Valley. Postbuses run back into the valley every hour.
An enjoyable tour includes the careful planning of the same. Please inform yourself in advance at the local information center about the route and weather conditions. Depending on the season and weather conditions, this route may be blocked or interrupted
