Description
The Alpbüel (2022m) is not one of the great summit figures in the Prättigau, but thanks to its good accessibility from Pany, it is a popular hiking destination. The ascent from the east and descent to the south can be combined into a wonderful summit crossing. Its central location in the middle Prättigau grants the Alpbüel one of the most beautiful panoramas in the entire valley: from the limestone walls of the Rätikon in the north over the Silvretta and Davos mountains, the southern Prättigau summits to the view towards the Rhine Valley and beyond towards the Bündner Oberland and Glarus Alps. The southern slopes and the middle altitude ensure a long hiking season: generally possible from May to November.
