Description
Start in Inner Zalön, a small and sun-drenched hamlet in the Safien valley. To warm up, it is best to start along the forest road to the stream at the Hüttatobel. Now leave the alpine road and ascend continuously over beautiful alpine meadows. The views to the opposite Piz Beverin and the other mighty peaks of the Safien valley become increasingly beautiful. At the Zalöner huts, you can choose a currently uninhabited hut and enjoy the well-deserved break. Of course, take your waste with you.
The descent can be chosen freely. If avalanche danger is increased, you should not descend too much towards the valley, as there are always steeper slopes there. At the end, it is easiest to jump straight down to the starting point.
