메소코‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

A reservoir in the Swiss canton of Graubünden, nestled in the impressive mountain landscape of the Viamala and Rheinwald regions. It stretches over a length of approximately two kilometers.

The lake can be bypassed with a mountain bike. Two gates can only be bypassed by stopping and pushing. :-(

The lake's location is unique; it already had 16 degrees Celsius today. A breathtaking landscape. The flora and fauna are also unique and diverse. Pure enjoyment!

An incredibly beautiful place, which we easily reached on foot from Splügen. The hut is not staffed, but can be booked for one night. Drinking water is fetched from the spring by boat... row across the upper Surettasee, enjoy the panorama, and refill your drinking water supplies at the spring... a truly adventurous experience.

Montespluga SO The mountain village of Montespluga is located at an altitude of 1908 m above sea level at the beginning of the Val San Giacomo (also called Valle Spluga) about three kilometers from the top of the Splügen Pass. The village was built in a depression rich in water and pastures where the Valle Spluga meets the Val Loga, near the border peaks of the area such as the Pizzo Tambo. In 1927, with the construction of the dam wall located about 2 kilometers south of Montespluga, the Torrente Liro was dammed to form the Lago di Montespluga below the village. The village with the few houses, restaurants, hotels and shops on the pass road and the old customs building "La Casa" has hardly changed. Until 1841, the only hospice on the Splügen Pass and the only place of worship, the Chapel of San Francesco d'Assisi, were located here. The latter was consecrated in 1832 after the completion of the new road to the Splügen Pass in 1822. As early as 1767, the apostolic nuncio in Switzerland and later cardinal Luigi Valenti Gonzaga had given permission to set up a small chapel in the hospice. Since the opening of the San Bernardino Tunnel, the pass has no longer been kept open in winter. The village, which consists of three roads (Via Dogana, Via Ferrè and Via Val Loga), can be cut off from both Italy and Switzerland. Montespluga is the starting point for numerous hiking, mountaineering and ski touring destinations in the surrounding mountains and a stop on the cross-border long-distance hiking trail Via Spluga.

Feel free to look at the photos of the food on Google Maps before you sit down 😉

Short rest before the pass climb

Small alpine lake with a hotel on its shore, a quiet area that is worth a visit and useful for having an outdoor refreshment.
