The Lagginhorn with its 4010m is the lowest 4000m peak. 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 Weissmies hut at 2700m. From here the trail leads across moraines, glaciers, entertaining rock-climbing sections and snowfields to a small and airy summit. The 900m ascend will be rewarded with awe-inspiring panoramic vistas.
Best time: May 30th - mid-October 2024
