“The Old Schin” was once an important connection between northern Graubünden and the Engadin and was probably a test of courage for many hikers back then. For us cyclists today it is quite a sporty route, but very easy to ride and, above all, very well secured. The Schinweg requires solid riding technique. It is not blocked, but there are some steep climbs, stones and roots as well as tight bends downhill.
