Dear hiking buddies.

i wanted to do the famous Pizol hike this year. Soon there will be snow, so even if the weather is not perfect, lets do it this weekend. Right now it looks a bit rainy and cold (around 5 degrees).

Means maybe this hike will not be as crowded as usually :).

Time Frame:

11:00 meet and start

walk along the lakes for about 4,5 hours

15:30 gathering at Pizol hut

16:00 cable car down at Pizol hut

16:30 down again in Wangs to get home

Meeting point:

Wangs Talstation cable car, 35 min walking distance from Sargans SBB train station.

Travels from Zurich HB:

08:12 Zurich HB, platform 10 (IR 35 to Chur)

09:23 arrival Sargans train station 

Hike:

We will do the hike in the reverse way then the GPX shows. So we walk 900 height meters up and only 600 down.

Starting at Gaffia after taking the cable car up, we walk the trail along the 5 lakes until Pizolhütte.

From there it is a few meters to the last lake and then the cable car will go down at 16:00 from Pizolhütte.

Picnic:

No specific picnic place planned. Will do lots of short stops for pictures.

Equipment:

No specific equipment needed, apart from hiking boots and warm clothes.

Application:

As always there is the possibility to come by car.

Join the car pool and either create a car yourself or have a look who can take you there.

For those who come by public transport please create a "car" in the carpool with around 30 seats and use "public transport" as a description. That way others can join that one and we keep a good overview.

If that one is full, create another one with 30 seats please.

No maximum number of participants.
