The loop starts at the Lej da Staz restaurant and first leads around the restaurant, before the steep climb in the forest up to Alp Staz begins. At the top, the plain opens up in front of you. Keeping to the left, the trail leads on a large loop, around the plain and on to the Alp, where the descent to St. Moritz begins. Shortly before the first houses of St. Moritz, the trail joins the marathon route. Following this trail through the snow-covered forest, the starting point, the Lej da Staz restaurant, is reached again in about 30 minutes.
