Badus, Mountain summit in Grisons and Uri, Switzerland
The Six Madun peak reaches an elevation of 2,928 meters within the Lepontine Alps, featuring steep slopes and exposed rock formations throughout its terrain.
The mountain has served as a natural boundary marker between the cantons of Uri and Grisons since the establishment of Swiss territorial divisions in 1803.
Local communities in both Uri and Grisons maintain different naming traditions for the peak, known as Six Madun in German and Piz Badus in Romansh.
During summer months from June to September, experienced hikers can access the summit through marked trails starting from the Oberalp Pass station.
The summit provides direct views of Lake Toma, the source of the Rhine River, which flows from the northern base of the mountain.
