スイス、3月の絶景の山頂・トップ20

The summit can be climbed as an alpine tour via the east and west ridges or as an alpine multi-pitch route via the south ridge (11 pitches, grade 4c). See https://www.sac-cas.ch/de/huetten-und-touren/sac-tourenportal/choepfenberg-385/alpinklettern/s-grat-373/ Descent via the BW-marked normal route. A magnificent mountain with panoramic views, much less visited than the nearby Brüggler.

Easy to ride from Lake Sihl, on the east side there is a fast descent (or long uphill ride...).

Unique panoramic views of many lakes and even more mountains. There are benches for comfortable seating and a panoramic board with the mountains labeled.

A nice climb with a good gradient. Perfect for training for the big passes.

The ascent is made in the form of easy climbing in a chimney. Once you have reached the summit ridge, you head westwards, slightly exposed, to the highest point with the summit cross. The transition to the Rossalpelifurggel (P. 1901) crosses the steep eastern flank of the Zindlenspitze. Then you go down to the Rossalpelifurggel on or next to the ridge. The path is more or less exposed. Where it runs along the western side of the ridge a little below it can be damp, so caution is advised. Shortly before the Rossalpelifurggel you have to climb down a rise that is secured with chains. If you have made it to the Rossalpelifurggel, you can also safely cross the Rossalpelispitz to P. 1990.

The Brünnelistock appears inaccessible from the Zindlenspitz or Rossalpelispitz. But if you stand in the gap between Rossalpelispitz and Brünnelistock (P. 1990), you can see that it is well graded. The path climbs almost 150 meters up to the summit, initially next to the ridge, later directly on it with one or two climbing sections (I-II). There are no more safety devices here, but at each climbing section there are several ways to get up. Absolute surefootedness and a good head for heights are required here. Advanced alpine hikers can also cross the Brünnelistock (preferably from northeast to southwest). But then we are at difficulty level T5 with climbing sections II.

Good place to stop for a coffee, water refill or bathroom break
