Pizzo Cassinello 3103 m

Thanks to the proximity to the Länta Hütte SAC and Passo Soreda, Pizzo Cassinello is one of the most climbed mountains in the Valser valley. Rightly so, because the surrounding glacier world and the view over the Ticino mountain scenery into Valais and towards the Bernese and Glarus Alps is spectacular.

The ascent from Passo Soreda to the summit leads over impressive gneiss plates and light scree. Snow can lie far into the summer, covering the markings. With good visibility, however, the mountain poses no orientation problems, and for particularly brave alpine hikers, the small lakes by the wayside invite a refreshing swim on the descent.
