Vorab, Mountain summit in Glarus Alps, Switzerland.
The Vorab summit rises to 3,028 meters between the cantons of Glarus and Graubünden, featuring steep cliffs on its northwestern face toward Elm.
The development of winter sports infrastructure began in 1979 when the Flims-Laax-Falera resort installed a platter lift near Glarner Vorab.
The mountain forms part of the natural border between German-speaking and Romansh-speaking regions of Switzerland, marking distinct linguistic territories.
Visitors reach the glacier through a modern gondola system that extends to the mountain's edge, providing access to winter sports activities.
The mountain contains two distinct peaks: Bündner Vorab at 3,028 meters and Glarner Vorab at 3,018 meters, separated by a small distance.
