Description

We start off leisurely. Up to the Zingelfurtfluh the terrain is gentle and flat, but then it is quite steep up to the Summermatten. With Piz Giübin in front of us, we strive towards the Sella Pass, with rocky sections to master in between. Piz Giübin is the highest point of this stage: time to relax and enjoy. The descent leads to the dam of Lake Sella and the Gotthard Pass.
