Trails

Three routes. No loop trails, no shortcuts — every one of them is out and back.

Because trails inside the park are fixed and off-trail walking is banned outright, the route network is small by Alpine standards: a handful of marked paths radiating from the Zernez–Ofen Pass road, each one walked the same way in as out. That's not a limitation so much as the whole point — a small footprint is what's kept the wildlife this visible for a century.
