Val Trupchun is home to an exceptionally rich variety of flora. This is also thanks to the geology, which illustrates the formation of the Alps with impressive rock folds at Alp Purcher, for example. We walk the Val Trupchun on two different routes. On the ascent we follow the valley path, on the way back we take the high trail through the species-rich mixed alpine forest.
