The mountain is reachable from Scuol via marked trails, with summer months offering the most favorable conditions for hiking. Visitors should plan for stable weather and sufficient daylight hours to complete the ascent safely.

The summit sits at the boundary between different climate zones, displaying remarkably varied plant life across different elevations in a compact area. This vegetation diversity often surprises hikers exploring the slopes.
