The Graubünden (Grisons) region is famous for its enchanting winter season. However, few people know about its charm during Spring and Summer. From June to October, the snow melts and reveals adventurous trekking trails, like the Tescht Trek.

The 4-day Tescht Trek is a Swiss classic and one of the most beautiful treks in the region of Graubünden. On this trek, you will cross the Flüela and the Albula Passes and you will spend your nights in cozy mountain huts. On your last day, you will visit Lai da Palpuogna, described by the locals as the most beautiful lake in Switzerland.

The Tescht Trek is very diverse and guides its visitors through wide valleys, glaciers, steep rock formations, and emerald blue lakes. Get your hiking boots ready and discover this Swiss gem in the canton of the Grisons!
