Diversion in Val Roseg!
The sixth stage of the Via Grischuna, which connects the two famous Swiss mountain destinations of Davos Klosters and St. Moritz, begins in Sils Maria and leads over the Fuorcal Surlej and through the Val Roseg to Pontresina.
Stage six makes a straight up start from Sils-Maria through the forest. A long traverse looks down on the blue lake Silvaplana below and wraps beneath the point of Piz Corvatsch. The climb to Fuorcla Surlej gets steeper passing under the Murtèl lift infrastructure. From the busy pass, the trail angles toward Chamanna Coaz, but cuts toward Roseg after the first switchbacks. It’s a gradual downhill out of the idyllic Val Roseg along a popular path, and smooth running all the way into Pontresina.
