Roseg seen from Sasso Nero.

As famous as the other great peaks of the Bernina Range, it was often considered the most fascinating and most attractive from a mountaineering viewpoint. Like the other great mountains in the Group, it consists of three peaks: Little Roseg (3,868 m), the anti-peak (3,920 m) and the Shoulder (3598 m).

The famous Canalone Marinelli, which separates Little Roseg from the real Summit with its snowy path, rises up the south wall.
