With its bright white summit dome, the Galenstock is the eye-catcher in the Goms.

If the experienced eye of a ski tourer wanders around the Ursern Valley, he will not be able to avoid the Galenstock area. The closely spaced peaks around the Albert Heim hut are too striking and impressive. Once you reach the summit cross, you can enjoy a fantastic view over the Uri, Valais and Berne Alps.
