GREINA

Just a stone's throw away from the Greina, the Terrihütte SAC is situated slightly elevated on a hill. The Plaun la Greina plateau is a unique, untouched mountain landscape with untamed streams and soft cotton grass fields - a landscape at 2200 m above sea level which charm lies in its vastness and openness.

The plateau is listed in the Swiss Federal Inventory of Landscapes and Natural Monuments of National Importance due to its exceptional variety of biotopes.

Due to its fauna, the Greina has been declared a federal hunting ban area Piz Vial-Greina. In the Greina marmots and capricorns say goodnight to each other!

There are numerous springs whose water flows northwards into the Vorderrhein via the Rein da Sumvitg and thus into the North Sea, or southwards via the Ri di Motterascio and the Brenno into the Ticino, the Po and the Adriatic Sea.

The Greina plateau is the border between weather, water and culture.

There are five accesses to the Greina: three from the Grisons side and two from Ticino. In addition to the Terrihut, the Capanna Motterascio and the Capanna Scaletta are also located close to the plateau. From the Medelserhut there is an attractive, direct crossing with a slightly alpine character. All of this opens up a wide range of possibilities for putting together a three- to four-day tour.

Summit conquerors will also get their money's worth.

Piz Coroi

Pizzo Coroi is a suitable destination in summer (T3) and winter (L/ WS+) to admire the Greina plateau in its entirety.

Piz Terri

Summer | Winter

The summit of the Terrihütte's namesake is a popular destination for alpine hikers (T4+): Piz Terri (3’149 m above sea level) offers a magnificent view after climbing the sharp-edged summit pyramid. In winter, it is advisable to have crampons in your rucksack for the last section (ZS/ ZS+).
