Piz Grialetsch

Piz Grialetsch, Mountain summit in Albula Alps, Switzerland

Piz Grialetsch is a 3,130-metre summit in the Albula Alps of Graubünden, where the municipal boundaries of Davos, S-chanf and Zernez meet. It is surrounded by glaciers: the Scalettagletscher on the north flank, the Vadret da Grialetsch to the east and the Vadret Vallorgia to the southwest. The mountain overlooks the Fuorcla da Grialetsch and lies between the Dischma and Engadin valleys.

The mountain sits near the Flüela mountain pass, a historic route that has connected Davos and the Engadin valley for centuries. This geographical position made the region an important crossing point for people and goods moving across the Alps.

The name comes from Romansh: 'Piz' means peak, and 'Grialetsch' derives from 'gregaricium', meaning sheep alp, from Latin 'grex' (herd). The summit marks the municipal boundaries of Davos, S-chanf and Zernez, where Romansh, German and Italian place names meet.

Access to the summit runs through the Grialetsch hut located at about 2,542 meters, from which a western ridge must be climbed. The route is doable during summer months and is rated as basic scrambling terrain.
