Piz Sardona, Mountain summit in Glarus, Switzerland

Piz Sardona rises to 3056 meters in elevation, marking the northernmost peak above 3000 meters within the Glarus Alps mountain range.

The mountain formation reveals geological layers where Verrucano rock rests above Lochsite limestone and flysch, documenting millions of years of Alpine development.

The mountain holds the name Surenstock among local communities and features two mountain refuges that serve as bases for climbing expeditions.

Visitors can reach the mountain by taking a train from Zurich to Sargans, followed by a post-bus service to Vättis or Gigerwald.

The Sardona Glacier on the eastern side and Glatscher dil Segnas to the south frame this peak at the intersection of three Swiss cantons.
