The Piz Palü with its characteristic three pillars is probably the most popular "not 4000" in the Alps. The exit from the Berghaus Diavolezza is ideal, it is also possible from the Bovalhütte. The key point for the ascent and descent is the passage of the Labyrinth between the Seraks. Continue over a relatively steep glacier to the ski depot. Then ascent with ice axe and crampons along the exposed summit ridge. The usual goal of ski mountaineers is the eastern summit - 3882 m.

Na vrchol Finsteraarhorn míří náročná ledovcová túra z chaty Finsteraarhornhütte. Hned od začátku túry jsou cestou velkolepé výhledy. Náročnější je překonání skalního žebra. Po ledovci do sedla Hugisattel s leteckým pohledem na východní stěnu. Zde je skidepot a dál v mačkách a s cepínem na skialpové poměry náročným terénem. Obtížnost lezení zásadně ovlivňuje množství a konzistence sněhu na skále. Náročný sjezd prudkými svahy kopíruje linii výstupu.
