Details

Description

The La Niva natural forest reserve is located above Savognin at the foot of the Piz Mitgel. On the dry, lean subsoil of dolomite rubble, 70 percent mountain pines grow. Spruces make up only 29 percent of the tree population. Due to the harsh environmental conditions, they reach their distribution limit and do not reach the height of 50 meters to which they can grow up at lower altitudes. Where the forest becomes looser and looser towards the top, the black grouse feels at home. On the open spaces above the tree line are the courting grounds, which are used again and again from year to year.

La Niva can be reached from Savognin on foot in about 1.5 hours or once a week on Wednesdays by hiking bus. A visit can also be ideally integrated into a hike on the Motta Palousa, with a view of the Albula Valley and Surses.

Plang la Curvanera can be reached by bike and hiking bus or by car. Further information can be found under the heading "Arrival".
