route

Fuorcla Surlej is a mountain biking loop in the Grisons region of Switzerland, about 2.8 miles from St. Moritz. The route is roughly 18.7 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 4,640 feet and a high point of about 9,046 feet. The climb is a loop, and the route carries both gain and loss, with a total descent of about 2,951 feet. That makes it a full-day ride rather than a short outing, and the high point sits well above the town. The loop passes close to several other destinations. Unterer Schafberg, a hut, and the Senda Munt da la Bês-cha hike are each about 0.8 miles away. Muottas da Schlarigna, a summit, is about a mile off, and TCS Camping Samedan offers camping about 1.6 miles away.
