01/ Overview

The route

In the secluded Bever Valley, the path follows the Beverin mountain stream through larch forests. Later it continues upstream along the Inn with views of the Bernina massif. Through the renatured river landscape along the Rhaetian Railway the route leads to the exclusive holiday resort of St. Moritz.

The hike begins just a few steps from Spinas station. The mountain trail initially leads through open meadows and patches of woodland, gently undulating down the valley. After a good hour, the route passes Restaurant Da Primo. It soon joins a yellow-marked hiking trail and reaches Samedan, where the open landscape gradually gives way to the developed valley floor.

The trail follows the Inn for a while before continuing via Celerina towards St. Moritz. The gentle ascent continues through the built-up area and reaches the highest point of the hike at around 1,850 metres. Lake St. Moritz then remains close at hand, with views opening up across the water towards the end. After a total of 13 kilometres and a good three hours, the hike ends at St. Moritz station. The route thus combines the broad valley landscapes of the Engadin, woodland and villages in an uncomplicated hike.
