Where it is
Piz Scalottas – 2160 is a thermal and cross-country launch at 2,160 m in Switzerland's Graubünden, reached by chairlift, with wind working from east or south. Hikers also make their way up on foot. As with most sites in this part of Switzerland, Föhn is the wind to watch for and treat with real caution — check the current forecast and airspace picture before you commit to a flight, since Swiss airspace here is a genuinely complex subject that rewards preparation.
