A walk in stages in the footsteps of the great artist, photographed and documented by Labahrd and Galli from Basel. The path, inaugurated in 1994 on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Segantini's arrival in Maloja, begins in the immediate vicinity of the Segantini studio in Maloja. From there, the trail goes up to the Torre Belvedere and on to the glacier mills. The end is at the Chiesa Bianca.
