Description

While the route starts out almost exclusively on forest paths from Scuol to S-charl and on to Alp Astras, the adventurous part of the tour follows immediately afterwards: the first ascent with a short carrying passage to Fuorcla Funtana da S-charl. Once you reach the plateau, it feels as if time has stood still. The view sweeps from the winding Val S-charl over the mountain top into Val Müstair. Here you take the turn-off to the right towards the Ofen Pass through the Valbella - a trail that is still considered an insider tip for advanced riders. In the sloping and exposed terrain, it is important to keep your concentration - which is not so easy with the wild trails and this view! The trail leads on and on to the Ofen Pass. From the top of the pass, a flowing trail follows through the green forests of Val Müstairs with a constant view over the valley. Past the Lai da Juata to the Alp Champatsch with the mountain restaurant la Posa. Perfect for a short stop for refreshments before continuing back into the wooded part of the area along rooty trails to Lü. From Lü, the route alternates between the main road with detours through the forest and along the contour line to Müstair.
