    Tips

    For people in Saas-Fee, this mountain peak is actually more of a nuisance in winter, as it blocks the view to the south and casts an early shadow over the town. In summer, this summit naturally offers a great vantage point of the Saas Valley.

      Beautiful glacier hike. In warm temperatures start early in the morning. Much water.
