Tarasp Fontana – Chaposch – Florins – Sgnè – Sparsels (RW)

The starting point of this winter hike is the idyllically situated hamlet of Tarasp Fontana, below Tarasp Castle, the symbol of the Lower Engadine. From here the path runs along the little used road past the Trinity Church in the direction of Chaposch. From Chaposch we walk over open terrain with the Tarasp Castle in view. A short stretch runs through woodland before reaching the next hamlet, Florins. After this settlement of a few houses, the path again leads through unspoilt countryside, over meadows and through some forest to the next village of this winter hike, Tarasp Sgne. You can choose to end the tour here and take the PostBus back to Fontana or Scuol. If you want to complete the round trip, take the road and continue uphill to the last hamlet, Sparsels. Sparsels is characterised by Engadine houses with sgraffito, direct views of the castle and the gourmet restaurant of the Schlosshotel Chasté. Downhill and past the castle, the trail finally leads to Fontana, where there is a PostBus connection to Scuol.  

The Schellen-Ursli shooting location: School 

Schellen-Ursli’s school is located in Florins at "Chasa 112". The house is not accessible, but you can well imagine how the children would have had a snowball fight here, where they even hit the teacher... All filming locations of the Schellen-Ursli film can be found here.
