Düssi, Mountain peak in Uri and Grisons, Switzerland
Düssi reaches an elevation of 3,256 meters and marks the natural boundary between the Swiss cantons of Uri and Graubünden in the Glarus Alps.
The first documented climb of Düssi occurred in 1841 when mountaineers A. Escher and G. Tresch successfully reached the summit through challenging conditions.
The mountain name reflects the linguistic heritage of the region, with local communities in Uri and Graubünden referring to it as both Düssi and Piz Git.
Climbers access the mountain from Bristen village at 778 meters, following marked trails to the Hüfi Hut at 2,334 meters for overnight accommodation.
The mountain features two distinct summits: the main peak Gross Düssi at 3,256 meters and the secondary peak Chli Düssi at 3,125 meters.
