Schafberg, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland

Schafberg rises to an elevation of 2,647 meters in the Swiss Alps, presenting high-altitude trails and panoramic views of surrounding peaks.

The mountain holds connections to artist Giovanni Segantini, who created his final paintings at a refuge near the summit in the late 1800s.

Multiple languages describe this peak, known as Munt da la Bês-cha in Romansh and Schafberg in German, reflecting the regional linguistic diversity.

Several marked hiking paths lead to the summit from different starting points, with the Muottas Muragl funicular providing initial elevation gain.

The former refuge where artist Segantini worked now functions as a restaurant, allowing visitors to experience views that inspired his Alpine paintings.
