Miralago - Tirano Through via Valposchiavo out of the valley to Italy

The hike from Lago di Poschiavo across the national border to Tirano combines nature experiences with interesting cultural and historical sites. Due to this variety, it is also suitable for children. The valley floor of Valposchiavo is used for agriculture, but is also home to various commercial and industrial enterprises, which the tour passes.

The circular viaduct of the Rhaetian Railway in Brusio is one of the sights along the way. This landmark of the Bernina line enables trains to negotiate the terrain below the village in a confined space and without the use of cogwheels. There is also a collection of small natural stone domes; in the past, dairy products and other perishable goods were kept cool in these crotti.

Later, you pass the Campascio vineyard, the only place in Valposchiavo where wine is grown. The little Romanesque church of Santa Perpetua is already on Italian soil. It offers a beautiful view of Tirano. In the geometric center of the town stands the pilgrimage church of Madonna di Tirano, which lines the last section of the hike.
