Aela

Short tour from Maloja with breathtaking views of the Engadine lakes, ideal for a summer evening hike. 

The hike leads from Maloja along the lake towards Isola. At the crossroads between Isola and Val Fedoz, the trail goes slightly uphill towards Ca d'Starnam. After about twenty metres, leave the gravel road and turn right to reach Aela on an ascending path. From the summit, you can return along the same route or continue in the direction of Val Forno - Salecina and descend in a north-westerly direction back to Maloja.
