Hiking

If you follow the military road towards the summit, you will automatically reach the positions. These are freely accessible for everyone to visit. The iron gates can only be closed because of the animals and seem closed at first. Inside the positions there are also light switches, so that a visit in the dark is not necessary.

Hiking

Hi, I hiked this trail last week with a very good friend, thinking of my son who recently passed away. I was proud of myself, sooo high. At the crosses I was close to him 🙏

Hiking

The fortifications directly in the mountain below the summit belong to the so-called "Linea Cadorna". These were built along the northern border of Italy during the First World War. However, never used because Switzerland behaved neutrally.
