Details
Description
From Seewis follow the road to Plileisch where the ascent track usually begins. Then continue north over open slopes and through short forest sections via Falliser to Wurzaneina (1535 m a.s.l.). Via the alpine road, ascend northeast to the Maiensässsiedlung Guora (1564 m a.s.l.). Along the long eastern ridge, pass the huts in Sadreinegg (1891 m a.s.l.), always following the ridge further to the small hollow in the southeast of Vilan (2375 m a.s.l.). The summit is best reached via the steep southeast ridge.
For the descent, there are various options depending on conditions and skill. Along the ascent route, up to Guora north of the ascent track, you usually find better snow conditions than on the ridge.
The difficult, steep descent to the northwest over Messerhaldenspitz (2175 m a.s.l.) to Älpli and further to Malans is only recommended in good conditions and with sufficient snow down to the valley.
Hidden Gem
Recharge your energy in one of the inns with regional specialties - the pure mountain air, for which Seewis became known as a spa, comes free of charge.
