An eventful hike across the well-known Greina plateau. The reservoir lake Lago di Luzzone in Ticino with the Capanna Motterascio shape the first day of hiking. The route continues over the Greina down steeply into the Val Sumvitg.

This is pure Greina hiking - without shuttle buses, in one day or two days, with two hut options. As a "Zuggerli" there are sections with fewer hikers, a rock arch, dreamy Ticino settlements, and a wildly romantic rocky path at the end.
