Val Plavna

Mountain bikers are not permitted to enter the national park. However, the magnificent tour into Val Plavna near Scuol also brings some national park flair for mountain bikers.

Description

At Scuol train station, ride a few meters on a forest road along the railroad tracks until the singletrail to the Vulpera spa hotel begins at the edge of the forest. Here you cross the Inn, and at the tennis courts an uphill singletrail starts towards Florins. Via Chaposch you reach Vallatscha and then climb up to Alp Laisch. The route continues into Val Plavna, now somewhat flatter, to Alp Plavna, where the final section to Sur il Foss begins in the form of a pushing passage. From here, bikes are prohibited, which is why the return journey initially follows the ascent route. Just before Alp Laisch, however, keep right and follow the flowing trail along the Plavna stream. Above Tarasp, you climb again to Lai Nair and from there head into the singletrail descent via Avrona to Vulpera. From here, it's just a stone's throw back to Scuol.
