Sassauna - Descent Schiers

Thanks to the cable car to 'Eggli' (Fanas cable car), Sassauna (2308 m above sea level) is easily accessible. From the mountain station of the cable car, you first ascend over Ochsenberg at a comfortable incline, becoming steeper from about 2000 m above sea level. It is possible to follow the SSW ridge or ascend further eastwards on the flank. The steeper summit slopes form the key section of the route and are challenging before you are rewarded with a magnificent summit panorama atop Sassauna (2308 m above sea level).

Descent to Schiers: From the summit to about 2000 m above sea level, follow the ascent route, then heading right (eastwards) to the huts of Huoben (approx. 1720 m above sea level). Now descend southwards over partly open, partly wooded terrain quite steeply and continue via Sponda or Spinis to Lasein (1076 m above sea level, cleared road up to here). Further across the open slopes of Marier Berg towards Montagna and Schiers.
