Péz da Vrin with snowshoes

The GPS track shows a circular route, but we recommend it as an out-and-back. That means either starting in Vrin (public transport connection) or from Sogn Giusep by car.

The route from the village of Vrin is somewhat more demanding near the summit. You climb directly over the alpine meadows of Prada and reach Alp Dado after about 500 meters elevation. It then becomes more demanding in terms of avalanche risk as steep slopes must repeatedly be traversed or you move within the influence area of steep slopes. The ascent to the summit is fairly steep and requires good walking technique. Space at the highest point is limited, but the panorama is certainly not. You can either descend along the ascent track or take the route via Sogn Giusep. The downside is that you have to walk finally along the valley road.

The ascent from Sogn Giusep requires arrival by car. This route is somewhat easier but still has some steeper sections. Up to the height of Stavel Liung, it goes over alpine meadows—just right for warming up. Continuing over Puozas up to below the summit. The summit ridge is regularly blown free of snow. Theoretically, you could now descend via Alp Dado. However, if you have your car in Sogn Giusep, you must solve this logistical problem.

The temptation to descend via Alp Cuolm is great. However, this area is a wildlife protection zone and closed from 01.12. to 15.04. Please strictly observe this!
