Flüela Wisshorn, Alpine summit in Grisons, Switzerland
The Flüela Wisshorn is a mountain summit in the Graubünden Alps reaching 3,085 meters in elevation. Its steep rocky faces and distinctive ridge create a striking profile that dominates the landscape around the Flüela Pass.
The first recorded ascent of the Flüela Wisshorn was made on 12 January 1902 by E. Nussberger and Chr. Guler, who climbed with snowshoes and carried their skis on their shoulders. The summit lies on the ridge north of the Flüela Pass, where the municipal boundaries of Davos and Zernez meet.
The mountain is a popular destination for climbers and defines the landscape around the Flüela Pass area. Its position along the main valley route makes it a familiar landmark for visitors traveling through the region.
The Flüela Pass road at 2,383 meters provides access to the area, with parking available near the pass. The climbing season runs from June through September when snow conditions allow safe passage and approach.
The summit sits along a well-traveled pass road, yet remains less famous than other peaks in the Silvretta range. This proximity to vehicle access makes it an appealing objective for experienced climbers seeking a technical challenge without remote logistics.
