An important passage, direct connection between Bergell and Valmalenco. In ancient times it represented a precious traffic line for the transport of goods between the Valtellina and the northern areas.

Details
Beschreibung
The width of the mule track, especially on the Valmalenco side, testifies to the importance of this passage. Less noticeable is the footpath on the north side in the highest part, which is probably due to the fact that in earlier epochs there was constant snow here. The route offers a splendid view of the surrounding mountains, in particular the north face of Monte Disgrazia, which can be admired at length on the descent to Valmalenco.
Geheimtipp
Overnight stay in Chiareggio and return hike the next day via the Forno saddle (difficult).
Sicherheitshinweis
The last section before the Muretto Pass is steep and quite gravelly.
Ausrüstung
Mountain boots, enough water, ID
Wegbeschreibung
You set off at the last bends of the Maloja Pass. A short road leads to the large Orden car park. Then take the small road that leads to the houses of Salecina and, after the bridge over the Orlegna stream, continue to the beautiful Lake Cavloc. Leaving the lake behind, walk through the valley until you reach a fork, still before the small dam of Plan Canin. The path up to the Muretto Pass turns left and crosses a bridge over the Orlegna.
Soon the trail follows the mountain stream that washes the last remnants of snow through the Val Muretto into the Orlegna. The last climb to the top of the pass is very steep and gravelly, the path leads rather left up the groove.
On the Italian side of the Muretto Pass, the path is wider and runs comfortably as a mule track through the Val Malenco, past some alps to Chiareggio.
