Flüela Schwarzhorn, Mountain summit in Grisons, Switzerland

Flüela Schwarzhorn is the highest point of the Davos landscape and of the Albula Alps north of the Fuorcla da Grialetsch, reaching 3146.2 m. It gives its name to the Schwarzhorn chain, and the Davos–Susch municipal boundary runs over the summit. Its dark amphibolitic rock, seen from Davos, makes it look like a black spike. A glacier, the Schwarzhorngletscher, lies on its north flank.

The name comes from the dark amphibolite rock that makes the peak look like a black spike from Davos. The summit lies on the municipal boundary between Davos and Susch and gives its name to the Schwarzhorn chain, a subgroup of the Albula Alps. The Schwarzhornfurgga (2880 m) separates it from the Radüner Rothorn.

The name comes from the dark amphibolite rock that makes the peak look like a black spike from Davos. Because the south-ridge route from the Flüela Pass is short and easy to follow, climbers often set off before dawn with headlamps to reach the summit at sunrise, and sunset ascents with a descent in twilight are just as common.

Most ascents begin from Flüelapass and follow marked trails that are best attempted during summer months. The route passes through different vegetation zones and requires good physical fitness and proper hiking boots.

The summit provides a complete view of surrounding Alpine peaks and ranks among the more accessible 3000-meter mountains in the region. This accessibility makes it popular with hikers seeking to reach such a milestone.
