Val Zuort
The Val Zuort ( ) is a small, steep side valley of the Lower Engadine . The almost six kilometer long valley lay entirely in the area of the former political municipality of Tarasp , whose Fontana fraction lies to the left and right of the stream coming from the Val Zuort. Since the merger on January 1, 2015, the Val Zuort has belonged to the municipality of Scuol . The valley is a popular destination for mountaineers for the ascent to Piz Zuort .
The southern end of the Val Zuort is the 3,122 meter high Piz da la Crappa , a few meters further northwest on the ridge to the Val Plavna is the three meter lower Piz Zuort, on the slope of the two mountains lies a small glacier, the Vadret da Zuort . The east side of Val Zuort is shaped by the 3,173 meter high Piz Pisoc , which separates the valley from Val S-charl and thus from the Swiss National Park . It is the highest point in the national park.
