The mountain station of the cable car is located at 2350m altitude. From there you have a fantastic panoramic view of the four-thousander all around and on Saas-Fee a good 500m below.

Hannig Mountain Restaurant

Highlight • Mountain Hut

There are three different trails leading to Hannigalp. One of them is wider and can therefore also be used as a winter trail. You can also take the gondola lift. In winter, there is a toboggan run from the mountain station down to Saas Fee. Hannig is also called Saas Fee's sunny mountain.

View of Saas-Fee and the glaciers

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here you have a wonderful view over Saas-Fee, to glaciers and rocky peaks. On the other side of the valley rises the sharp Almagellerhorn and behind it the ridge that marks the border with Italy.

The Gemsweg between Saas-Fee, the Spielbodenbahn intermediate station, and Hannig uses display and information boards to explain the formation of glaciers, their importance for people and nature, and the development of tourism and nature conservation in the Saas Valley.

Nice view of the glaciers above. In the morning and in the evening you can see the marmots below the mountain station and feed them. The glacial lake is worth seeing and worth a break. Or circumnavigation. Running downhill results in sore muscles for a long time! Beat uphill
