Piz Roseg, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland

Piz Roseg features three distinct summits, with the main peak reaching 3937 meters and its northern face covered in extensive ice formations and glaciers.

The highest point of Piz Roseg was first conquered on June 28, 1865, by mountaineers A. W. Moore and Horace Walker, accompanied by guide Jakob Anderegg.

The mountain's name reflects the traditional Romansh language of the Grisons region, where 'Piz' designates a mountain peak in local alpine terminology.

Access to Piz Roseg requires technical climbing skills, with the primary ascent routes starting from Tschierva hut and taking approximately six hours to complete.

The mountain's northeast face presents a 700-meter vertical challenge, featuring a combination of rock passages and ice formations that change throughout the seasons.
