The summit is accessible by cable car from St. Moritz, with the upper station located just below the peak. Accessibility varies depending on the season and weather conditions.
Visitors can experience winter sunrises at the summit while having breakfast at nearly 3,100 meters elevation. This offers a rare opportunity to start the day at such a high altitude location.
