Trailrun - Zerfreilahorn circuit

At the back of Vals, the mighty massif of the Güferhorn divides the alpine high valleys Canal and Läntatal. Between Zerfreila and Furggeltihorn right through the middle runs the Furggelti path, which is considered one of the most attractive pass routes in the region. The elongated ascent leads directly above the Zerfreila lake up to about 2700 m and the steep descent finally compensates with the fantastic panorama of the highest peaks and most powerful glaciers of the Valsertal. The return route from the Länta hut SAC to Zerfreila is considerably flatter and rewards enduring runners with places to stop and eat.

From the post bus stop in front of the restaurant Zervreila, a narrow, paved road leads past the dam towards the Zerfreila chapel (1984 m). From there, a gravel road with a view of the Zerfreila lake leads down in about 20 minutes to the Canal bridge (1865 m) and a few hundred meters later at the first junction, follow the hiking trail over the Furggelti to the left. In about 2 hours through increasingly rocky terrain up to the Furggelti (pass height 2712 m).
Descent (1 hour) over steep slopes down to the Länta hut SAC (2089 m) and downhill towards the Lampertschalp (30 minutes, 1991 m). Continue following the hiking trail in 1 hour via Ochsenstafel and Canal bridge back to Zerfreila.
