    As the only four-thousander in the Eastern Alps, the Piz Bernina (4,048 m) is also the highest peak in the canton of Graubünden. It belongs to the Bernina group and forms the border between Italy and Switzerland. Experienced mountaineers with suitable equipment will be delighted here. Several routes lead to its summit, the most aesthetic and popular is the Biancograd, the easiest route leads over the Spallagrat.



    James Bond was also impressed by the spectacular scenery of the Bernina group, when he fled in front of his pursuers in 1985, "In the face of death" on the skid of a snowmobile.

        An unforgettable mountain tour and a very special moment to sit on top of the summit at sunrise. I wrote more about this on my blog: sonne-wolken.de/wandern-pontresina
