Um Su (2357 m) & Lappi (2466 m) - ski tour from Lumbrein
Start of this ski tour at 9:30 AM just west of the village Lumbrein. It was shortly before sunrise. At the beginning there was not much snow, which is fine for the ascent, but for skiing down it is not so great. More to that later. There was of course a well established track all the way to the summit of Um Su. After two hours...

Pischagrat (Davos) - snow shoe hike
Nice snow shoe hike in the Pischa area (Davos). Start of the hike at 9:00 AM. It was mostly sunny, but with some thin clouds. I mostly followed the winter hiking trail, which was quite well groomed. Whenever I hiked next to the trail, I typically did sink in about 30 cm in the loose snow, even with the snow shoes! At elevation...

Feil (2501 m) - snow shoe hike from Stierva
Nice snow shoe hike from Stierva to Feil in perfect weather! Start of the hike in Stierva at 9:00 AM. There was no snow in Stierva, but at elevation 1700 m I finally mounted the snow shoes. Spotted quite a few chamois on the way, but most of them were far away. Barely any wind at P.2501, so I could enjoy my lunch there in...

Witihüreli (2634 m) - hike from Sertig
Nice and easy hike from Sertig to Witihüreli (2634 m) in perfect weather. I mostly followed the white-red-white marked trails, only using my water proof running shoes. There were not very many hikers or bikers on the trails, presumably because the Jakobshorn aerial cable car is not operating. Close to the summit I saw a ptarmigan...

Da dies der erste hikr Bericht für Guggernell ist, habe ich mich entschieden den Bericht auf Deutsch statt auf Englisch zu schreiben. Guggernell (2743 m) ist ein Gipfel nördlich von Alvaneu, welcher bis heute auf hikr.org nicht beschrieben wurde. Ich hatte auch sonst keinerlei Routen Beschreibungen, aber basierend auf Fotos und...

Morning hike to Igl Compass (3015 m)
On the way back home after a long weekend in Samedan, I stopped at the Albula pass, and hiked to the top of the mountain called Igl Compass. There is a white-red-white marked trail from the Albula pass all the way to the summit. In the upper part there was a little bit of snow here and there, but it didn't cause any problems. I...

Piz Padella (2855 m) is a mountain peak west of Samedan. A white-red-white (wrw) marked trail goes to the summit. I started the hike at 8:35 AM in Samedan. I followed the signs in direction Margunin and Piz Padella. The trail goes fairly steep uphill through the forest. At Margunin there is a great view to surrounding...

Great views to surrounding mountains, and I got to see a couple of ibex close up! First I took the chair lift from Pontresina up to Alp Languard, and then I started my hike at 8:45 AM. I...

Sur al Cant (2716 m) - bike & hike from Bivio
On the way to Engadin, I stopped in Bivio and did a bike & hike to Sur al Cant (2716 m). This mountain is a little bit further south than the Bivio ski area. It was blue skies all day, but quite windy. The view from Sur al Cant was great, even if the summit is not as high as many surrounding mountains. Route: By bike, from...

Leidbachhorn (2907 m) - hike from Sertig
Leidbachhorn (2907 m) is a mountain just west of Sertig (Davos area). The neighboring mountain Älplihorn is more well known and more often visited. Start in Sertig at 8:30 AM. I followed the unmarked trail up towards Alpeli (T2). The start of this trail is a bit difficult to find. From Alpeli I proceeded in northwesterly...

Piz Müsella (2896 m) - hike from Dürrboden
Piz Müsella (2896 m) is a rather unknown peak between Piz Kesch and Piz Vadret. So far, two hikes from Susauna to Piz Müsella were described here on hikr.org, but this is the first report where the starting point is Dürrboden. Even if the mountain does not reach 3000 m, the view is great in all directions! From Alp Funtauna...

Fil de Cassons (2694 m) - bike & hike from Flims
Cassonsgrat/Fil de Cassons is the highest area of Crap da Flem aka Flimserstein. The aerial cablecar to Cassons stopped operating a few years back, so now you either have to hike from Naraus or Bargis to get up there. I started off with the mountain bike around 10:15 AM in Flims, heading up towards Fidaz and then Bargis. At the...

Vorab 3000 - bike & hike in the ski area of Flims Laax
For a long time I had planned to do a bike & hike from Laax to Bündner Vorab and Glarner Vorab, but due to other projects, it did not happen until today. When I last week saw photos from a friend's bike tour in the area, it again reminded me of my dormant plan. I started off around 7:30 AM from Laax. At the start, the...

Start of the hike at 8:40 AM at the Julier pass road (La Veduta). I followed the white-red-white marked trail in direction Fuorcla d'Agnel. After the pass, I continued...

In the maps from before 2015, the height was shown as 2970 m. However, as noted by ivo66, this is not the highest point. Current online maps show that the summit is 2975 m high...
