This peak has been on my list of mountains to climb for quite some time. I planned to go up through the North wall (SAC Clubführer WS, “über Schutt und steilen Rasen”). However the North side of Gamsberg was still very wet and slippery, therefore I decided to climb up the “Normalroute” on the east groove instead. As others have described, this groove is not very difficult to climb, a joyful T5 and maybe II at most.
The ridge to the main summit is relatively exposed but technically not difficult. Going out to the west peak is more exposed (probably close to T6) but beautiful too – from there the people on the peak of Sichelchamm seem way lower even though it’s only a little more than 100 meters.
I went the same way down to Oberlänggli as on my way up, but from there I took a “little detour” via Schlösslichopf. I recommend this detour to everybody because on Schlösslichopf you have a great view down to Voralpsee, the Rhine valley, the Alpstein and of course Gamsberg see here.
