Plattinger (2615 m) & Verdinser Plattenspitze (2680 m) are two peaks east of Meran. The area has numerous hiking trails, and is easily accessible with the aerial cable car Meran 2000. The two peaks in my hike are not visited that often though. There is no marked trail going up to Plattinger, and the trail to Verdinser...

My wife and I took the aerial cable car up to Oberkirn, and hiked to Taser, where we took another aerial cable car down again. On the way we had lunch break at Assenhütte with a nice view, even though it was partially cloudy.

Gipshorn is a peak on the mountain range between Büelenhorn and Chrachenhorn, and lies south of Davos Monstein. I started my hike at 9 AM, first walking up through the Monstein village, and then following the hiking trail in direction Mäschenboden. From Monstein all the way up to Mäschenboden this means that you follow a...

This hike covers the three peaks Tällihorn (2683 m), Felahorn (2728 m), and Wuosthorn (2814 m) - which are all very close to Sertig (Davos area). I started the hike rather late, it was already 9:30 AM. After leaving Sertig Dörfli, I ascended on the wrw marked trail for a distance of 700 m. The hiking trail between Sertig and...

Piz Settember (2727 m) is a mountain peak near Radons (Savognin). Possible routes are: east flank (T3), south ridge (T4), or north ridge (T5). On the west side there is a vertical rock wall, nearly 100 m high at the most. My ascent was on the north ridge, with descent in the east flank. I started my hike at 9:15 AM in Radons....

Dejenstock (2021 m) & Mättlistock (1910 m) are two mountain peaks just north of Klöntalersee. They both offer a great view of surrounding mountains and of the lake. Start of the hike at 7:45 AM at Klöntalersee. I followed the wrw marked trail up to Obere Scheiterböden. From there I continued on an unofficial path...

Gantspitz (1970 m) is a peak south of the Fluebrig massif, and it may for example be accessed via the ridge from Turner (>T5). However, I chose the easy ascent from Ochsenboden on an unmarked trail to Alp Wäni, and then off trail via Ganthöchi to the summit of Gantspitz. The most difficult part was in an area around elevation...

Nice hike to the summit of Rädertenstock, which is one of the two highest peaks around Wägitalersee. According to the online maps, both Rädertenstock and Mutteristock are 2294 m. Start of the hike shortly before 9 am in Hinter Bruch at the southern end of the lake Wägitalersee. The marked trail between Hinter Bruch and...

Chlein Schwarzhorn (2967 m) is the smaller sibling of Flüela Schwarzhorn (3145 m), and is rarely visited. The summit book contains only 3 entries for this year (including mine). So, you can hike to Chlein Schwarzhorn, and have it all for yourself. But it is of course a bit a struggle to get through the stone runs and all the...

Morning hike from Ochsenboden to Fläschlihöchi together with my wife. Despite the dry weather in recent weeks, the trail was a bit muddy here and there. For the descent, we walked on the forest road to Studen, and then back to Ochsenboden along the small river.

Bocktenhorn (3043 m) is a mountain peak between Chüealptal and Dürrboden. It can be accessed from Sertig or Dürrboden. Either way, the usual route is going up on the south ridge, starting from P.2848 between Bocktenhorn and Leidhorn. I wanted to try how it is to hike to Bocktenhorn via the west ridge. The start of the hike...

Nice bike & hike from St.Margretenberg to Stelli (2051 m) together with my wife. We left the bikes at P.1335 and continued on foot from there. It was a bit foggy at the beginning, but it cleared out just as we reached the summit of Stelli.

The plan was to hike to Lachenstock (2026 m), and eventually go to Zindlenspitz afterwards. In the end I added Rossälplispitz to the hike as well. Lachenstock isn't much of a mountain peak, but it's simply one of the highest points on the ridge between Zindlenspitz and Rädertenstock. I had not been there before, so I wanted to...

Nice short hike from St. Margrethenberg to Pizalun with my youngest son. The weather was mostly sunny with a nice cooling breeze, so we actually needed a thin sweater part of the time. One hour lunch break in the restaurant Buura-Beizli.

Piz Champatsch (2945 m) is a mountain peak north of Chant Sura on the Flüela pass. There are two other peaks with the same name in Engadin, and of similar heights, so it can easily be mixed up. When I started my hike at 9:20 am, it was all cloudy, and patches of fog here and there. The weather forecast had predicted mostly...

The plan was to hike to Glaserhorn (3128 m), but due to low clouds and patches of fog at noon, I ended up doing only "Klein Glaserhorn". There is no mountain with such a name in the online maps; the peak is just P.3074 (or P.3075 as it seems to have grown by 1 meter recently). But some fellow hikrs have named it Klein Glaserhorn,...

Inner Fürberg (aka Gross Fürberg) is a peak which is rather easy to hike to, but it still offers a great view to the glacier and the highest peaks in the Glärnisch massif. I started off at 7:15 in the morning from Plätz, bringing my mountain bike along. The forest road to Chäseren is quite steep in many places, so I mostly...

Great hike to Piz Arpschella together with roko! Here is a link to his report in German. We started at Chant Sura following the wrw marked trail to Alp Grialetsch. There we used the bridge to cross the small river Aua da Grialetsch. Just passed Alp Grialetsch, we continued straight up the hillside following a creek or couloir...

This was a very nice hike to Brünnelistock (2132 m) in perfect weather. Start of the hike at 7:40 in the morning. I followed the wrw marked trail from Wägitalersee via Aberli to P.1592 (just before Hohfläschenmatt). From there I ascended off trail until I reached the unmarked path which goes up between Brünnelistock and...

This hike covers the four peaks Stelli (2052 m), Brotjoggli (2115 m), Berger Calanda (2270 m), and last but not least Rossfallenspitz (2632 m). Start of the tour at 7:30 in the morning from St. Margrethenberg. First with the mountain bike on the paved road to Fürggli (P.1333 in the online maps). Then on the unpaved forest road...
