From there, the journey takes you via Taufers to Mals, where a stop in Vinschgau is recommended. After changing bus and passing Lago di Résia over the long Reschen Pass, the driver from the local public transport company Südtiroler Automobildienst transports you up to Nauders and over the Norbertshöhe to Pfunds. There, you can change to the Postbus. After the journey through the romantic and wild Lower Engadin valley, you reach Scuol. You can easily end your trip here and take the Rhaetian Railway back to Zernez.

The tower in the lake
A prominent landmark in Vinschgau is the half-submerged tower in Lake Reschen. The deserted church tower is fascinating and fairytale-like, as well as a popular image on postcards. The Romanesque church was submerged when the lake was dammed shortly after the end of the Second World War.
