Description
An intermediate level walk along wide roads and paths to a full service hut. Allow 2-3 hours each way.
Save this one for a clear day because there are stunning views across the valley to Breitspitze, Vermuntsee and the lower switchbacks of the Silvretta Hoch Alpenstrasse. And that's before you ascend from Verbellaalpe into the high hidden valley with its own warm microclimate and a softly babbling stream inhabited only by cows and marmots. The hut is situated at the end of this valley on the highest possible point, as they always are. The final climb up is steep but on a tarmac paved road. e-bikers wish they'd conserved their batteries.
This route is very popular with mountain bikers and will be busy at lunch time. Food is served from 12pm and trust me, don't eat before you go.
