Allalinhorn (4,027m a.s.l.)
Intro
The Allalinhorn is part of the Mischabel chain. It is one of the easier four-thousand-metre peaks, making it extremely popular with climbers.
The Allalinhorn is one of the easier four-thousand-metre peaks in the Alps. That’s one of the reasons why this mountain south-west of Saas Fee attracts so many visitors. The funicular to the Mittelallalin mountain station, just 580 metres below the summit (4,027m a.s.l.), was opened in 1984. Those who want to avoid the crowds on the normal route (western side) can tackle the ascent via the Hohlaubgrat ridge. Geographically speaking, the Allalinhorn is part of the Mischabel chain (Valais Alps).
