The Greina Plateau (die Greina Ebene, Plaun la Greina) in July 2015. The plateau is about six kilometers long and one kilometer wide. It's a unique Alpine tundra landscape at an elevation of 2'200 meters. It's a protected landscape. It can only be accessed by hiking. The "easiest" way to the Greina Plateau is from the canton Ticino, from Pian Geirett. From there it's a hike of about 6 km and 400 meters difference in altitude. There are 4 hutts around the Greina Plateau to stay overnight. If you start at Pian Geirett, the Capanna Scalletta makes an easy access to the Greina Plateau.
