Plattjenweg

This run-hike climb rises above Saas-Almagell in Valais. Expect 27 to 46 minutes. The hardest 500 metres average 17.9% and start 2.7 km in, so the worst of it lands when you are already committed. It faces north: the shady side, where snow stays longest. The nearest named summit, Mittaghorn at 3,143 m, is 586 m away. Its 3.3 TEP puts it in the easier half of the catalogue. Graded demanding mountain hiking, meaning footing matters more than fitness in places.
