The Traumgrat in the Bernina...

The white Fringrat on the Piz Bernina is one of the most beautiful "sky ladders" in the Alps. This massif is also the only 4000m peak in the eastern Alps. The beautiful and fantastically situated Tschiervahütte is the "base camp" for the tour. Delicious dinner included! Before sunrise you climb over the Fuorcla Prievlusa on the Biancograt and after the balancing act on the elegant ridge and the adventurous climbing spots in the Berninascharte you will reach the summit with happiness. In the afternoon you will enjoy the flair of the Italian Marco-e-Rosa-Hut to toast your dream! The way back on the last day leads harmoniously over all the peaks of the Piz Palü to the Berghaus Diavolezza.
