Snowshoe tour from Lü to the Ofen Pass

The starting point for this tour is the small village of Lü in Val Müstair. From the western end of the village, an alpine path leads up a pleasant incline towards Alp Champatsch. The alp lies slightly to the west in the wide valley basin at the foot of the Pass da Costainas. It is managed in winter and is a good place for game viewing. After the hut, we leave the winter hiking trail and head northwards on the eastern flank of the Minschun. We then continue via Fuorcla Funtana da S-charl to Alp da Munt, a serviced hut in the small ski area of Val Müstair. From here, the route continues westwards at the same altitude towards the Ofen Pass. At Plaun dals Bovs, cross the Ofenpass road and follow the winter hiking trail to Hotel Süsom Give. The small final ascent takes about 20 minutes.
