All hikes in Engadin Scuol Zernez

The God da Tamangur ("the wood at the back") is the highest continuous area of stone pine forest in Europe. It is located at around 2300 m, right at the end of the S-charl valley, south of Scuol.

Over the valley slopes to Oberengadin - and Brail with its ornate small church; the Ober and Unterengadin border by «Punt Ota» and old customs house (later to become a parsonage and then school) with inscription: «Veglia chesa da scuola.» Pretty Cinuos-chel village centre by the church.

Müstair with St. Johann UNESCO World Heritage Site is your starting point for the leg over Sta. Maria, Valchava through the larch woods bordering the National Park, to Fuldera and Tschierv. And from the highest Ofenpass village over an upwards trail to Lü.

Over flower-filled meadows, with wonderful views along the sunny slopes of the Engiadina bassa, before turning into the wild, forested Val Sinestra, past historic buildings, climb to the scenic Fimberpass, the pass to the Heidelberger Hut.

The Nationalpark- Panoramaweg lets you venture through a variety of fascinating landscapes, while at the same time providing an insight into three differing cultural regions. Actually a hike through an international park.

Elaborately decorated church in Lavin; Inn, wood-bridge crossing to the peaceful woods and meadows by Susch – and the famous Foura Baldirun forest area. Foura Baldirun made history as a place of refuge in the war years, and Güstizia as a place of justice. Stately Zernez is just in the distance.

Schmelzra and its old furnace ruins follow after S-charl. Then onwards to the turn into the Val Mingèr valley, through the mixed woods along Clemgia, descent through the Clemgia ravine, and on to the Inn district of the resort Scuol. (Previously know as Bad Scuol or Schuls).

Scree slopes and a detour to Austria are the hallmark of the upper section of this stage. You then reach duty-free Swiss soil and descend through a varied landscape with glacier residue, waterfalls and meadows to Samnaun.

An impressive route over sunny terraces with colourful dry grassland and superb views of the mountain world. On the way: a typical Engadine village, an old convalescent hotel, hanging bridges and mountain trails, passing lakes, waterfalls and glacier residue.

Scenic pass and valley landscapes on the Jakobsweg route through multifaceted Graubünden. Historic cultural signs of the Santiago pilgrim’s path – and stunning scenery inviting one to reflect on own values and the beauty of nature.

From the Ofen Pass forests to the high alpine meadows with rich flora and fauna and magnificent views over half of the National Park. The nature trial provides interesting information about the open and hidden secrets of the trail.

Here the focus is on the spectacular rock path through the upper Val d’Uina, a former smugglers’ route recommended for those with a head for heights. Up on the pass and already on Italian soil is the generously dimensioned Sesvenna-Berghaus.

Steep descent from Scuol to Ftan, with unforgettable views over the «Funtauna da San Giacun» in Bos-cha, and 9th-century hostel ruins before the descent to Ardez –where we recommend a village tour. Guarda is a typical Unterengadin village.

Zernez is situated in the upper part of the Lower Engadine. It is the starting point of many hiking tours leading to the National Park. But even the tours on flat terrain along the Inn River are very scenic.

Yes indeed, wild still exists in the true sense of the word. And on the panoramic trail through Switzerland’s National Park, you experience this at its most impressive!
