Rescignaga is a moderate out-and-back hike in the Grisons region of Switzerland, set at a high point of about 3,966 feet. The route is roughly 0.76 miles long, with a total elevation gain of about 916 feet, and the nearest town is Bellinzona, in Ticino, about 6.7 miles away. The climb is a short, moderate outing that reaches its peak in the middle of the route. Because the trail is out and back, the total gain and loss are both about 916 feet. The high point makes this a compact way to reach a mountain top in the area. The Rifugio Alp di Rescignaga is about 1.3 miles away, and the Rifugio Alp di Luarn is about 1.4 miles away, both huts that make good bases for longer trips. The Monti di Lanès - Alp di Luarn hike starts about 0.8 miles away, and the Cima dello Stagn summit is about 2.1 miles off.
