This route will captivate you with its varied and fun terrain. It is the perfect introduction to rock and mixed alpine climbing. The starting point is the Hohsaas cable car station at 3100m. From here the trail leads across glaciers, entertaining rock-climbing sections and snowfields to a small and airy summit. The 900m ascent will be rewarded with awe-inspiring panoramic vistas.

The Lagginhorn with its 4010m is the lowest 4000m peak.
