- Description
-
From Ardez railway station, the trail leads northwest through the village and soon reaches a wood above the school. The trail follows the forest in a north-westerly direction and reaches the toboggan run after about 1 km. Follow this for the next 2.5 km up to "Munt" and continue to Alp Murtera Dadaint to the start of the toboggan run.
Alp Murtera Dadaint lies sun-drenched above Bos-cha and Munt d'Ardez, at 2150 m above sea level at the starting point of the new, 5.3 km long toboggan run to Ardez. After an ascent, a soul-stirring view awaits you (2 hours from Guarda or 2.5 hours from Ardez).
The longest and probably most beautiful toboggan run in the Engadine takes you back down into the valley.
