Sur Carungas ( Rhaeto-Romanic in the idiom Surmiran for over cornices ) is a ridge section southwest of the Savognin ski area in the canton of Graubünden in Switzerland with an altitude of 2829 m . A boldly placed rock head forms the highest point. Thanks to its proximity to the ski area and the associated short ascent (200 m) with the long descent (1000 m), it is a popular ski mountain.
