Starting point is at St. Moritz railway station, the trail leads along the lake and up past the Meierei to the picturesque Lej da Staz. Lining the lake shore are wonderful barbecue sites and picnic areas, while retro-style changing cabins and a jetty invite visitors to take a dip. At the Restaurant Lej da Staz, there is even a small playground. From Lake Staz, you can continue your walk as far as Celerina or Pontresina, and then return to St. Moritz either with the Rhaetian Railway or by bus.
