With this hike I wanted to explore the area around Sertig pass and try to reach the summit of Piz Murtelet (3019 m). The weather was perfect, and it was a really nice hike. The view from the summit was magnificent! I did not meet any other hikers on Piz Murtelet, but on the marked trails there were quite a few others who enjoyed...

Inspired by the hike reports from ivo66, I wanted to visit Piz Albana. The weather was perfect, and it was really a nice hike. The view from the summit was magnificent! Surprisingly there were 4-5 other hikers who visited Piz Albana on the same day, but they had left the summit when I got up there, so I had it all for myself. I...

In this hike to Lenzer Horn (2906 m), I went up from Lenzerheide to Alp Sanaspans, bringing my mountain bike along. Then I left the bike behind, and followed the white-blue-white marked trail to the summit. Afterwards I descended a bit on the east ridge, and realized that a descent on the south-east ridge would be feasible....

My first hike to Piz Curvér. The weather forecast had predicted sunny conditions, but in the morning it was all overcast with patches of fog. In the afternoon it was a mix of sun and clouds. I started this hike at the Sars parking lot at elevation 1800 m, and followed the marked hiking trail in direction Ziteil. After reaching...

My first hike to Piz Toissa and Curvér Pintg da Taspegn. The weather was not quite as nice as the weather forecast had predicted, but it was a mix of sun and clouds. It was also quite hazy, so that it wasn't really possible to make nice panoramic photos. I started this hike at the Sars parking lot at elevation 1800 m, and...

The plan was to hike to the summit of Ochsenchopf (2179 m), but due to the very wet grass (dew), I aborted the hike just below Ochsenchopf at the start of the steep section (where ropes/chains are mounted). Still it was a nice hike in a scenic landscape.

Start in Bargis at 9:30 in morning (arrival with the earliest bus). The first part of this hike we followed the marked trail in the direction of Alp Mora. After the bridge at P.1872 we went straight on the unmarked trail through the mountain pine (Legföhren) area. If there was no trail, I think it would be impossible to get past...

I started this hike in Wildhaus, and went up to the summit of Wildhuser Schafberg via the south ridge. From Schäferhütte (1552 m) I followed the ridge on the left side, and not the marked trail. There are some rather steep grassy sections, which were now even more difficult due to sheep poop... I would say it's better to follow...

After so many rainy days it was nice to go hiking in perfect weather again! On this hike I basically followed the ridge from Crap la Pala via Piz Scalottas, Piz Danis, and Stätzer Horn to Fulenberg. The panoramic view to other nearby mountains was absolutely fantastic! I spotted a few animals (a deer, numerous marmots, and...

Nice hike from Wägitalersee to Chli Aubrig together with my wife. Same way back again. Great views to the surrounding mountains, and to Sihlsee. There were also lots of nice spring flowers to see on the way.

Schülberg (1930 m), Biet (1965 m), and Fidisberg (1919 m) - half spring, half winter Since there is still so much snow at higher elevations, I chose to go to Hoch-Ybrig and explore the area around Schülberg. The weather was perfect, but there was still a lot of snow even below 2000 m elevation. Route: From Weglosen on the...

Time for the first hike of the season! Two days ago while biking at Wägitalersee, I saw that there was still a little bit of snow at the top of Gross Aubrig. Today that snow was all gone, and the ascent from Schrä via Bärlaui was possible without having to walk through snow. For the trail via Eggstofel it is another story. I...

Bike & hike to Piz Linard (2768 m) on December 27th! Normally, I would consider the alpine hiking season to last from May through October. But this year is different. I was inspired by Polder's report from 02-DEC-2015, and I assumed that the snow from 3 weeks ago was now gone. I could even see from one webcam in the...

Short hike from Maschgenkamm to Gulmen (aka Erdisgulmen).

This hike started at P.1860 Chalchtrittli, following the marked trail up to Muttseehütte (mountain lodge), and then to Kistenpasshütte (another mountain lodge). From there almost straight up to Muttenbergen P.2895 and P.2905. There was perhaps 10 cm of snow, but no ice where I went, so it was possible to hike without crampons....

Easy hike fromTannenboden toMaschgenkamm.

A peak that that is close to a famous one, and not visible from the village apparently does not get a name assigned. So it seems for P.3096 on the Bifertenstock range. It is the lowest of four peaks leading up to Bifertenstock, but a wonderful viewpoint which is technically quite easy to reach. Of course, conditions may differ,...

Hiking to Muttenstock from Brigels is a lot longer than from the Tierfehd/Muttsee side, but I was in Brigels and wanted to give it a try. The ascent towards the summit is supposedly a bit easier than from the Muttsee side. Start in Brigels at 9:15, which was rather late, but that is when the chairlift starts operating (Brigels...

Nice hike with my son who was 9 years old at the time.

It was a warm day on my hike to Chli Chärpf (2700 m). In the morning there were clear skies, but later on clouds appeared around the mountain peaks. It was actually very warm to hike up from Unter Ämpächli to Charpfscharte. Only at the summit of Chli Chärpf, the temperatures were more comfortable. Somewhere before P.2260 I...
