Eat cake at Monte Leone SAC hut! Cool view when you get over the ridge and see the Chaltwassergletscher and Chaltwassersee. Ascent looks like Mordor.

Very easy hike, but still very nice. Quite popular, so avoid public holidays and go preferably on a normal week day (also not a hike for super hot days due to low altitude). We took the boat back to Murg (the village of Quinten is not accessible by road).

Short and steep, a bit sketchy, nice view on top. Same way back.
