Viewing summit between Schanfigg and Prättigau

The Mattjischhorn is a strikingly uniform-shaped mountain that can be easily recognized even from distant summits. The expectation connected with this is fully confirmed: it must be a magnificent viewing summit. Thanks to the ascent to the Pirigen ski house, this wonderful destination is comfortably reachable in a short and "child-friendly" time. Despite its qualities, the summit is surprisingly rarely visited. In the Gothic church of Langwies, you can view wall paintings from the 16th century.

From the Berg- and Skihaus Pirigen, we hike over wide and gentle south-facing alpine meadows to a crossroads. Straight ahead it continues, then to the right over the steep last section of the slope to the ridge – Wit Furgga. Over this, it is easy to get to the summit of the Mattjischhorn, 2461 m (cross, cairn, summit book). We first return to the Wit Furgga notch, then take a narrow path through rocky terrain over the summit Blackter Flüe, 2320 m, to Fürggli, 2141 m. Only now do we leave the ridge and descend on the west flank to a fork. Here we keep left and return through the alpine meadows to the Berghaus Pirigen.
