Val Forno
View on Wikipedia
Val Forno (German Fornotal) is a valley south of Maloja in the Swiss canton of Grisons with the Forno Glacier at the head of the valley.
Description
[edit]The river Orlegna originates from the glacier and flows through the valley. At Plan Canin the valley forks: to the southwest lies the upper Val Forno with the Forno glacier, to the southeast the side valley Val Muretto towards the Muretto Pass (crossing to Italy).[1]
Further down the valley lies the Lägh da Cavloc.
A hiking trail leads from Maloja through the entire Val Forno to the Forno Glacier and the Forno hut on the slope east of the glacier.[2] The trail is easy until the Lägh da Cavloc and then becomes increasingly stony and challenging towards the glacier.[2]
