Details
Beschreibung
This long-distance hiking trail of the Swiss Alpine Club (SAC) not only leads to all SAC Bernina huts, but right through a breathtaking mountain world: from the Albula valley with Piz Kesch and the UNESCO World Heritage Rhaetian Railway, into the magnificent Julier region with its impressive geological formations, through the Bernina area with the summit kings Piz Palü, Piz Moteratsch and Piz Bernina and finally to the incomparable Italian atmosphere of the lovely Puschlav.
The Bernina Trek is wonderfully hikeable thanks to its three possible variants for easygoing, sturdy and summit-challenging hikers: The “classic” leads in seven days through magnificent mountain landscapes, past deep blue mountain lakes, icy glacier streams and snow-covered mountain peaks. For those who want more, this route can be extended with various summit experiences ("Summit Challenger" variant). But a relaxed "Pacific" route is also possible, so families and groups with mixed fitness can also experience this alpine high enjoyment.

The paths are marked according to Swiss hiking trail standards: red-white-red, the stage destinations are indicated on yellow signposts. Very good fitness is required for tours up to 9 hours and up to 1650 meters ascent. Good surefootedness and fear of heights are necessary.

This equipment list is primarily meant as a packing aid, it is not complete. It is advisable to concentrate on the essentials on a multi-day hut tour.
