The second stage of the Via Grischuna begins with a fast 600-meter climb to the sweeping views of the Scaletta Pass. From the pass, the route passes above Val Funtauna, overlooking this tranquil river valley. After leaving Val Funtauna, the route climbs up to the Ravais-ch lakes. Passing these lakes, a long descent begins along the Ava da Ravais-ch.
At Punts d'Alps, a cluster of small houses, follow the path uphill over Alp digl Chants. After this second ascent of the day, a hilly traverse leads over the balcony overlooking Val Tuors. Below Piz Darlux, the trail serpentines down through the forest to Bergün, where the second stage of the Via Grischuna ends.
