Description

Lunghin Pass, a triple basin near Piz Lunghin, Switzerland, is a colorful dreamland for explorers and hiking fans. This mountain pass (2,645 m) located in the Swiss canton of Graubünden has a special attribute: the water that runs off it flows towards the North Sea, the Mediterranean Sea or the Black Sea.

We will start our one-day hike on the historical Septimer Pass (2,310 m), located between the green valleys of Bergell and Surses. We will then head towards Pass Lunghin, where we will witness a remarkable feature: water dividing itself three ways on the top.

While we descend, we will get to enjoy an admirable view of the Engadin Valley, packed with pristine lakes that will enhance your senses.

For 5 hours and a half, we will hike 15 km to reach a unique place on Earth: Lunghin Pass. So, if you have the physical condition to take this challenge, book it now! I am waiting for you.

But why stop there? You can hike the amazing Piz Mezdi at nearly 3000 m and get to marvel at its views, on this one-day trip.

About the guide

Thomas

Mountain Leader

After one year of training by the BAW, the time has come: since April 2016 I have been a certified hiking and snowshoe tour leader.

For some years now I have been travelling in the mountains in summer and winter with great pleasure. I would love to share one or two mountain experiences with you. So if you have time and desire for fresh air, exercise and impressive nature experiences, I am happy:
- to plan and guide a hike "dreamed" by you from easy to sporty
- to plan and carry out a hike according to your wishes.

In winter I carry out snowshoe hikes - again adapted to your individual wishes and possibilities.

With the best mountain and hiking greetings.

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
