Piz Val Gronda

Piz Val Gronda, Mountain summit in Obersaxen Mundaun, Switzerland

Piz Val Gronda is a 2,819 m summit in the Graubünden canton, the third-highest point in the municipality of Obersaxen Mundaun after the Hireli (2,850 m) and the Schwarzhorn or Piz Gren (2,890 m). It rises between the Val Zavragia, which drains toward Zignau, and the Val Gronda, which runs toward St. Martin and Tavanasa. The ascent is rated EB on the old SAC hiking scale, equivalent to T3–T4.

The sources record no cable car or construction at Piz Val Gronda; the summit is reached only on foot. The mountain rises to 2,819 m, making it the third-highest point in the municipality of Obersaxen Mundaun, after the Hireli (2,850 m) and the Schwarzhorn or Piz Gren (2,890 m). It stands between the Val Zavragia, which drains toward Zignau, and the Val Gronda, which runs toward St. Martin and Tavanasa.

The name is Romansh: "Piz" means peak and "Val Gronda" refers to the broad valley on the mountain's eastern side, above St. Martin and Tavanasa. The western flank drops into the Val Zavragia, which runs down to Zignau. Both valley names appear on hiking signposts in the Obersaxen Mundaun area.

There is no cable car to the summit; the climb is on foot, rated EB on the old SAC hiking scale, equivalent to T3–T4, so it suits experienced mountain hikers. The route runs between the Val Zavragia to the east and the Val Gronda to the west, the latter descending toward St. Martin and Tavanasa. Allow time for the exposed higher sections.
