I am going on the My Way Alpine Europe in 2024. Does anyone know where I can purchase, or download, a good, accurate hiking map of the Alpe di Suise. Specifically, I am trying to find out how far the hike is from Compatsch to Malaga Schgaguler Schwaige, out and back. Thanks for any help; appreciate it!

I used this website a lot in planning our hiking routes when we went on the My way Alpine tour in June 2022.

If you want a paper map, the Tabacco 05 1:25000 topo map covers Alpe dimSiusi as well as Val,Gardena. I believe I got mine from Omnimaps.
You can also use Google Maps or Apple Maps to get the route and distance. I started in Compatsch, entered Malga Schubaguler and located that, then asked for directions to the hut ( switched from Drive to Walk). I used Apple Maps on my iPad which I like more than Google for walking directions. This said it is a 3-mile walk (each way) with 600 or 800 feet of elevation gain, depending on the route taken.

Thanks for the info Lola; appreciate it! I did plug it in and came up with the same distance. I never thought to use Google Maps, just think of as driving😜 . I will also look at Omnimaps.
Thanks again,
Gary
