- Description
-
The second stage of the regional Bikeroute 442 is peppered with impressive views and vistas. At the beginning, the proud Tarasp Castle at the foot of the striking Lower Engadine Dolomites dominates the panorama. Later on, the individual villages of the Lower Engadine appear on the horizon and in the distance, all of which are visited on the tour, namely Scuol, Sent, Vnà and Ramosch.
The long, high-altitude ride into Val Sinestra is technically easy and allows views of the picturesque and spooky Val Sinestra spa house and the earth pyramids near Zuort. The Prümaran da Muranza at the highest point of the tour lies idyllically above Zuort in Val Laver and presents a view of the last kilometres of the tour.
In Zuort, at the confluence of the Aua da Laver and Brancla rivers, it is worth stopping for refreshments in the restaurant, which is open all year round, before heading down the left side of the valley to Vnà and on the descent to the day's destination Ramosch, at the foot of the Tschanüff castle ruins.
