Switzerland's Graubünden region is one of the Alps premier trail running destinations. We have created this tour to showcase some of the most beautiful yet lesser visited mountain-scapes in the world. On this 9 day, 7-stage tour we will follow the Via Grischuna trail from Davos to St Moritz, a total distance of approximately 170km with over 9000m vertical gain. WOW! Along the route wide, rocky valleys, crystal-clear lakes and gleaming white glaciers make the Grisons’ one of the most beautiful jewels on the planet. The wild and romantic landscape that the Via Grischuna leads through will truly captivate.
Over the duration of our tour you will have access to our expert guides and coaches who always strive to facilitate an environment of education and learning for all elements of trail running. We are eager to share our knowledge on gear, equipment, nutrition, wilderness safety and conservation, adventure or race planning, local environmental and cultural significance and trail running techniques, tips and tricks that will have you dancing, thriving and keeping safe on the trails. This trail running tour will provide challenge and education amongst a mountain setting... it is one not to be missed!

Wow! The scenery was stunning all along the way and it was definitely the sight of Piz Ot behind Val Bever which stoked me the most. A lesser known trail running gem!- Flo
