Piz Toissa

Piz Toissa is a 2,657-meter (8,717-foot) peak in the Oberhalbstein Range with steep flanks and exposed rocky faces on most sides. The mountain rises distinctly above the surrounding terrain with prominent cliff bands marking its upper sections.

Tectonic movements and erosion over millions of years shaped this peak as part of the developing Alpine range. These geological processes continue to influence the landscape today.

Local mountaineers maintain several marked paths leading to the peak, continuing the Swiss tradition of establishing safe routes through the Alps.

The climb is most easily accessed from the village of Salouf using well-marked paths through varying elevations. Proper footwear and mountain experience are important for navigating the steep sections.

From the summit, you can see neighboring peaks like Piz Curvér and Piz Martegnas with a prominence of 310 meters above Furcletta col. This viewpoint reveals the intricate structure of the local mountain landscape.
