This peak in southern Grisons is not well known but the more beautiful it is. You'll be able to witness fantastic panorama towards Italy, over the Morteratsch Glacier and Piz Bernina. And if you are lucky enough an ibex might cross your lens too!

The peak is reachable from the cable car station Alp Languard above Pontresina. The trail is good indicated and I love how informative everything is along the trail. Also the fact that on the hut (Chamanna Georgy) there will not be any pottable water, meaning you can fill your bottles at the last spring. I recommend to combine the hike with an overnight stay at Chamanna Georgy. It's always special to watch a sunset and sunrise in the Alpine high altitude silence.

The peak is at 3175m.a.s.l. and here are some indication for the trail (1. with overnight stay; 2. full trail) Duration: 2:10h / 3:35h Distance 3.4k / 7.5km Ascent: 939m / 939m Descent: 0m / 939m
