Mit dem Postauto von Maloja nach Sils Maria. Von dort zu Fuss am Silsersee entlang zurück nach Maloja. Eine wunderschöne Landschaft. Jetzt im Herbst mit den gelben Lerchen, noch einmaliger.
The Upper Engadine (Romansh: Engiadin' Ota, German: Oberengadin) begins at the Maloja mountain pass with a chain of lakes running north-east–south-west: Lej da Segl (Lake Sils), famous for windsurfing, Lej da Silvaplauna (Lake Silvaplana), and Lej da San Murezzan (Lake St. Moritz). At the south-west end of the valley, the Maloja Pass drops precipitously down to Chiavenna in Italy through the Val Bregaglia, and thence to Como. At the Lunghin Pass, above Maloja, lies the most notable triple watershed in western Europe, from where the Inn flows via the Danube to the Black Sea, the Maira via the Po to the Mediterranean Sea, and the Gelgia via the Rhine to the North Sea.
View from the north shore of Lake Silvaplana. Lake Silvaplana (Silvaplanersee, Lej da Silvaplauna) is located in the Upper-Engadine valley of Grisons, Switzerland. Surface elevation: 1,790 m.

Die Weggabelung beim Restaurant Unterer Schafberg. Eigentlich wollten wir locker weiter dem Höhenweg gegen links zum Muottas Muragl folgen, doch beschlossen wir hier spontan, gegen rechts den steilen Aufstieg zur Segantinihütte zu nehmen (504 Meter HD).
Pontresina, aufgenommen im Abstieg vom Unteren Schafberg. Inzwischen waren wir mit ein paar Pausen 6 Stunden unterwegs gewesen.
