Hiking from Guarda to Ardez

Endowed with such spectacular alpine settings, the Lower Engadine is understandably a hiker’s paradise. It is crisscrossed with many walking and hiking trails, with varying levels of difficulties, to suit every kind of traveler. These hikes can be easy and leisurely undertakings, walking from village to village over the meandering hill roads, by the terraced hillsides, through meadows with grazing cows or even through forests of evergreen Pine and Fir or the deciduous Larch. On the other hand many hikes involve steep and strenuous uphill climbs, meant only for the fittest and most avid hikers. Needless to say, it is also the cross-country and mountain cyclist’s paradise.
