Piz Scalotta (2991 m) - hike from Bivio

Piz Scalotta is probably most known for ski tours, but it's also a nice mountain for a summer hike. If you follow the easiest route (like my descent), the difficulty does not exceed T3.

Start of the hike at 8:30 in Bivio. The weather was great, but again like yesterday with a cold breeze from the north. At the beginning I followed the wrw marked trail in direction Stallerberg. At elevation 2300 m I left the marked trail and headed into Val Gronda. During the ascent I was perhaps a bit too far left, and I had to cross several areas with bigger rocks and boulders (in some places T3+). For the descent I chose an easier route where I could also benefit from the few remaining snowfields.

The view from the summit of Piz Scalotta was magnificent. Especially the view to Mazzaspitz, Piz Platta and Piz Forbesch was great!
