12 km pure trail running - over roots and rocks the loop leads from Roffla to Cresta and back to the starting point.
The route starts in Roffla, where you already have the Lai da Seara - also called the Bärenburg reservoir - in view. At the beginning, the trail climbs steeply to the highest point of the route at 1,792 m above sea level. On varied and partially technically demanding trails you then continue towards Cresta, where you have to overcome a short uphill section. Pause briefly and enjoy the view before the final downhill begins back to the starting point in Roffla. The final section of the route follows along the old Averserstrasse and the river Ragn d'Avers and is characterized by its glacial mills, rock formations of slate, marble, quartzite, and dolomite.
