Cycling day trip from St. Moritz to Scuol

This ride from St. Moritz to Scuol is a true Alpine adventure, perfect for cyclists who love a challenge and some unforgettable scenery. Starting in the glamorous resort town of St. Moritz, nestled at nearly 1,800m above sea level and famous for its chic atmosphere and stunning lakes, you’ll head northeast toward the Engadin valley.

The route stretches over 71km and tackles serious elevation changes—expect over 1,750 meters of climbing and an even greater descent, so get ready for those adrenaline-pumping downhills. You’ll roll on a mix of paved roads (around 44%) and plenty of gravel and unpaved tracks, so a sturdy bike (and maybe some adventurous spirit) will come in handy.

As you approach Scuol, the scenery shifts: think quiet Alpine villages, deep forests, and craggy mountain backdrops. Scuol itself is a relaxed spa town, with mineral springs and a welcoming vibe—ideal for unwinding after the ride. Take your time, pack some layers, and let the peaks impress you along the way!
