Hohsaas

Hohsaas (3'101 m) is a cable car station and a ski area in the Pennine Alps above Saas Grund in Valais.

Although Hohsaas is not a mountain summit it still offers impressive views over the Mischabel range and 18 four-thousand meters mountains, including the Weissmies which is easily accessible from there.

Kreuzboden

Kreuzboden (2'397 m) is an intermediate cable car station between Saas Grund and Hohsaas. This is a popular place because of the panoramic restaurant and a small lake with a playground.
