Sent – Mot da Set Mezdis

The starting point of our route is Sent. Sent, mentioned as a settlement, dates back to the year 930, where it appears as "Vicus Sindes" in a document. Since 1879, the Engadine village has officially been called Sent. The ascent from Sent goes gently over a meadow path starting above the village. The path leads in slow switchbacks up to below the forest, then you enter the cool shade of the fir trees. After about an hour, you cross the road to Alp Telf / Spadla. It continues through the forest upwards until you reach the plateau of Plan Dartos. Here you have a wonderful view into Val Sinestra towards Zuort and the village Vnà, which appears as if stuck to the southern slope of Piz Arina 2828 m above sea level. Piz Tschütta / Stammerspitz 3245 m above sea level and Muttler 3295 m above sea level from Samnaun powerfully frame the view in the background.

Alternatively, you also have the option to hike up the small road leading to Alp Telf and Spadla. This small road winds up through a light fir forest. Below Alp Telf you come out of the forest and have a wonderful panoramic view to the south and over the Lower Engadin. At Alp Telf, you can take a short break or continue hiking. After that comes the final ascent.
