Snow Shoe Tour:
A Morning Stride Above Sils
Muott’Ota Viewpoint, 2329 m
MARCH 22, 2025
A Morning Walk in the Peaks.
Description
The day begins with a rich vegetarian breakfast buffet at Hotel Chesa Pool. Afterward, we start our adventure.
In the morning light, we make our way through the snow-covered Fex Valley. The trail leads us into the winter forest of Val da Crasta, where we gradually gain elevation, weaving through a landscape of quiet beauty. As we ascend, the view slowly unfolds. At the tree line, where the sunlight reaches us once again, the vastness of the Upper Engadinstretches out before us—a landscape of light and snow, of stillness and open space.
At 2,329 m, we pause for a moment—above us, the radiant sky; below, the endless white of the winter mountains.
