Tips
Fun T4 section near the top of the Fronalpstock peak. Chains on both sides of the chimney and plenty of holds on the rock. A bit greasy in spots. Definitely slick when wet.

A mega experience, but requires surefootedness and a head for heights!

Ascent in Chämi with chains on the right and left. In the event of crowds alternating relegation, then advancement, it is too narrow for both at the same time.

After the Chämi climb, it is only a short distance to the summit of the Fronalpstock.

A bit tedious with crowds! When waiting, you have a clear view from Tödi over the Klöntal to the Niederurner Täli.

The blue/white marked ascent/descent to the Fronalpstock is not too difficult, but you should of course have a head for heights and be sure-footed, and since there are some rocky sections in the upper part, dry conditions are definitely recommended. The chain-secured couloir can get congested, but with the beautiful views, there's absolutely nothing to wait for. The views are wonderful on the ascent and descent and on top of the summit anyway!!!If you are afraid of heights, you can follow the path up just a little bit, there is a nice place where you can sit down and the views up there are already gigantic and the wonderful view over to the Klöntalersee and the surrounding area Glarner mountain peaks are free.
