The cross-country skiing trail in Buffalora offers a unique dreamlike scenery with a view into a deeply snow-covered area. The start of the 3km long trail is at the parking lot Buffalora Nr. 2, drive direction to the top of the pass Ofen Pass/Val Müstair, which is about 200 m away from the inn Buffalora. The three loops are tracked for classic technique as well as for skating. Another track is also prepared as a winter hiking or sledging trail.
This trail was created on private initiative and is also managed by a private person. Therefore, it would be desirable if a donation is left at the Buffalora Inn after use.

Take a short break while cross-country skiing and admire the fantastic scenery that Buffalora has to offer, not only with its unique plain, but also with its surrounding snow-capped peaks, some of them 3000m high. The imposing Piz Nair, for example, which stands proudly on the border of the Swiss National Park. Looking towards the Ofen Pass, you can see the Munt da la Bescha, to the right of the Ofen Pass the Piz Daint, above the Alp Buffalora the Munt Buffalora.
