    This stage starts leisurely, ideal for waking up until La Punt. Then full concentration is required, as it goes up the pass road to the Albula Hospiz. Now the enjoyment begins: on the Albula Trail to the Es-cha parking lot and then up over the Fuorcla Gualdauna to the Chamanna d'Es-cha.

    Chamanna d'Es-cha: Like a balcony, the Es-cha hut lies above the Engadin. Behind it towers Piz Kesch. The panorama is breathtaking and extends over the entire Bernina group. A 2% fee is charged for payment by credit card.
