The Schiahorn is not a significant peak, but it is visible from afar and easily recognizable by the striking avalanche barriers on a sub-peak. When the chairlift still ran from Schatzalp to Strelapass, the ascent was short and well suited for taking children along, although younger children had to be secured on the steep slopes. The reward for their effort was fun for them: a ride on the Schatzalp summer toboggan run. The "Alpinum" (3500 plant species!) is also worth a visit. The Schiahorn is recommended, at least for adults, even though the ascent is now quite strenuous. Reasons include not only the impressive summit and beautiful view (due to the advanced location) but also the good chances of observing ibexes. The Strela can be "taken along" with little extra time. For those interested in name origins: "Strela" derives from the Romance word "stria" = witch.
From the valley station of the Schatzalp cable car to the Schatzalp mountain station. On a good path to Strelaalp and further over the Strelaberg into the eponymous pass, a formerly important crossing to Langwies in the Schanfigg. Shortly before, the ascent to the summit branches off. It first crosses the steep flank in the direction of the southern ridge and leads over this to the summit of the Schiahorn. From the southern ridge, it is often possible to observe ibexes on the eastern flank. The descent initially leads back to the Strelapass. Now, however, you ascend the ridge that leads away from the Strela and follow it over a sub-peak to the highest point of the Strela. Descend briefly steeply via the southern ridge, then continue comfortably to a knoll and the small Strelasee, 2404 m. Crossing a hollow, you reach the Strelaberg and shortly thereafter the ascent path, on which you return to Schatzalp.
