The panorama that can be enjoyed from the top is very famous, for its relative isolation and for the distance from other peaks of similar or greater height: it includes the entire north-western alpine arc, the Bernese Oberland, the Matterhorn, very well it is you can see the Monte Rosa as far as the inner Swiss peaks and the mountain ranges on the border with the Triveneto.
