The essentials at a glance

This moderate mountain bike loop tour around the Swiss National Park covers approximately 143 km over 4 days through Switzerland and Italy. Starting and ending in Scuol, the route passes through Val S-charl, Pass da Costainas, Val Müstair, Livigno, and reaches its highest point at Chaschauna Pass (2,694 m). The tour features scenic descents, alpine landscapes, mountain streams, and picturesque Engadine villages including Guarda and Ardez.

Experience the Bike-Marathon trail 

The bike marathon around the Swiss National Park is probably one of the most spectacular events in Switzerland. Athletes from all over the world spare no effort and cycle up to 140 kilometers in a few hours. The professionals have little time for the beautiful scenery, but they do go a little slower.

You will get to know the famous bike course over several days on your tour around the national park. You roll through small hamlets, visit the Münster Valley, make a detour to the shopping paradise of Livigno and finally return to the Lower Engadine. You too can feel like a champion in Scuol at the end of your journey. Unlike the professionals, you will have gained some more impressions and will roll over the finish line with a smile.

Itinerary
