Schesaplana circular tour

Seemingly insurmountable, the rock bar rises above the Schesaplana hut. But the Schweizerweg leads safely and directly to the summit. First we go over steep lawns up to the rock band, where the white-blue markings show the way through the Schrofenstufen.  Some chains and a small ladder provide additional support in the key point (T4), but sure-footedness is a must. The Steimandli (Steinmänner) mark the route eastwards through the large debris field. From the Schesaplana saddle it now goes steeply northwards up the last altitude difference to the summit - the view is worth the effort. Back in the saddle you cross the national border. Over rock bands and rugged terrain, the path runs eastwards to Gamslugge. After a last look at the Lünersee, it goes steeply, secured with some chains down into the Vals Valley. Along the Prättigauer Höhenweg you quickly get back to the Schesaplanahütte. Here you can review the tour with coffee and fine cake and enjoy the magnificent panorama. 

It is recommended to plan this route as a 2-day tour - the day before comfortably to the Schesaplanahütte. So you start rested and freshly strengthened in the alpine hike. 

If you like it fast, you can whizz back to Seewis with the scooter.
