    The footpath through Clemgia is once again closed this year. We took the detour west of the gorge, via Vulpera and Avrona, and then down and over the bridge to the eastern side.
    Very nice walk, Vulpera and Avrona are worth visiting, but it takes longer and needs additional ascent and descent.

    To clarify Piet's helpful comment : you can still of course walk from Scuol to Gurlaina to Vulpera then up into the gorge. It's well signposted. From Gurlaina to the turnoff at Vulpera is about 10 minutes though, not 30 as marked on the signposts.

    As from july 2022 the footpath along the Clemgia gorge is reopened. The starting point of the path however is not anymore Gurlaina, but in Vulpera. The path is repaired and new bridges we're constructed. The views remain spectacular and are worth the detour. At the end of the gorge you can take the postal bus to S-Charl at Plan de Funtanas.

    Suite à un éboulement dans la gorge de Clemgia, le chemin a été détourné, on le rejoint à la sortie de la gorge.

    Very few accommodation in S-scharl. Book well in advance. As an alternative, book 2 days in Scuol YH, Walk the second day without luggage to S-Charl, after arrival take the frequent postbus back, and the next morning take the bus up again and from there start your next hike.

    Part of the track is blocked because of an avalanche, I walked along the main road.

    Pas de "Descriptif détaillé" pour cette étape ! Ce sont des infos générales. Pourriez-vous en écrire un ? Cela vaudrait le coup de signaler qu'entre Scuol et S-charl, l'itinéraire passe par la jolie et fraîche gorge de la Clemgia. Il serait dommage de prendre le car postal !

    No "Detailed Description" for this step! These are general info. Could you write one? It worthwhile to point out that between Scuol and S-charl, the route passes through the beautiful and cool gorge Clemgia. It would be a shame to take the Post!
