Lag Serein - Lag Crest Ault
Disentis, Caischavedra–Disentis, S. Catrina
The lakes of Lag Serein and Lag Crest Ault nestle in little hollows below the rugged rocky faces of Piz Acletta and Piz Run. There are picnic spots along the shores of the lakes, with fantastic views of the mountain range opposite, featuring the Medelser Glacier.
The cable car takes hikers up to Caischavedra in comfort, where the tour begins. The trail across the lush meadows of Alp Magriel is seamed with orchids and cotton grass. In July, alpine roses flower on the slopes, contrasting delightfully with the snow-covered peaks. The waters of Lag Serein are as clear and pure as the name suggests, and certainly worth the refreshing dip.
Next up is a short ascent around the Muotta dil Tir to the valley of Val Clavaniev. From there it's only a few hairpin bends before you reach the Lag Crest Ault. It is well worth taking a longer break here in preparation for the descent. But providing you take your time and have hiking sticks with you, the drop in altitude should not pose a problem. The trail leads via Plaun Grond and Clavaniev back to the cable-car valley station.
