The Gstellihore / Dent Blanche outing is a compact alpine day that combines a short via ferrata with long mountain terrain. The SAC description highlights a serrated summit that stands out clearly from the north, while the SAC Bern tour notes a brief K2 ferrata section and otherwise T4 terrain. The normal approach runs from Gsteig via the Sanetsch reservoir and Chalet de la Lé to the ferrata, then on to the summit and over stony, karsty ground on the descent. If needed, the return can also be made by the ascent line.
