Celerina - Pontresina (SwitzerlandMobility Route 564)
- Scenic
- Refreshment stops available
- Family friendly
- Forest
Between Pontresina and Celerina this signposted snowshoe trail takes you through the enchanting, snowy Forest of Staz and across moorland clearings covered in deep snow.
It is always well worth stopping now and again along the relatively flat snowshoe trail as it winds its way through this natural monument of national importance, and to listen out. Even now, in winter, the forest is inhabited, and if you listen carefully, you will hear birds chirping and squirrels darting up the tree trunks.
It is possible to start the snowshoe tour either at the Pontresina railway station (cross-country skiing centre) or in Celerina at the bridge that leads to the Forest of Staz (Church of San Gian), and to complete the trail either in one direction or as a tour there and back.
