Profil_04

Schweizerischer Nationalpark -

Closed
A challenging ascent of the highest peak that lies entirely within the National Park.

From 2500 m altitude upwards there is no visible trail; alpinists must choose their own route, bearing in mind that they may only pass through the Cluozza and Valletta valleys on their approach to Piz Quattervals. Other routes are not permitted. Danger of rockfall in mid and late summer (helmet recommended).

Particularities
Besides Munt la Schera, the only peak lying completely within the Park that is accessible to visitors. Overnight stay possible in Chamanna Cluozza.

Please note that breakfast at the Cluozza hut is served at dusk at the earliest. This in order to protect the animals from early disturbances.
