Die Überschreitung von den Lobhörner ist schon sehr gut beschrieben von dannuegel und Lulubusisowie auch auf Gipfelbuch. Zudem ist dasTopoonline frei verfügbar. Das Ziel von diesem Bericht ist vor allem das ganze fotografischnoch etwas besser zu dokumentieren. Weitere Anmerkungen / Ergänzungen: An einem schönen...

Die Runde um die Walop-Alp, von Widdergalm über Stierengrat, Kaiseregg und Schafberg bis zum Rotenchaste, ist eine grossartige Überschreitung für gute Alpinwanderer. Die T6-Schüssstellen (der Felsgrat von Stierengrat zu Hasensrpungspitzen und die Annäherung vom Rotenchaste) sind kurz aber dürfen nicht unterschätzt werden....

The Grindelgrat has not seen so many Hikr reports yet. This is surprising, since the route is sunny, scenic, relatively short and suitable for beginners. It is fairly safe (up to but not exceeding 30°, with no danger of falling except for the slightly corniced cliffs behind the the summit). The whole valley is a nature reserve,...

In all of September, I didn't manage a single hike in Switzerland above 2000m. Also for the first day of October, the weather forecast initially looked quite dreary. A last minute improvement in the weather forecast prompted me to spontaneously aim for a fairly high summit after all. I drove to the Schwarzwaldalp with the aim of...

I joined Sputnik for a hike onto the Tschuggen, of which he already published his own report. Different from Sputnik, I also explored the Tschuggen south ridge and added and ascent of the Lauberhorn to my day. The ascent of the Tschuggen via P. 2333 (nice photo spot) and the east ridge is relatively straight-forward. There...

From Lauterbrunnen, we follow the hiking path that climbs the cliffs on the west side of the valley in the direction of Mürren. The path stays in the forrest (where we get to observe some chamois) and away from the cliffs, so the views are limited to the occasional glimpse of Eiger and Mönch through the trees. Those glimpses are...

The Chrummfadeflue ridge is already well-documented here on Hikr (see e.g. Ka's report). Nevertheless, it's a very quiet route (the last entry in the Gustispitz log book is already 11 days old), especially when you compare it with the tourist magnets of Gantisch to the west and Stockhorn to the east. Since it had rained the day...

I have already been a fan of the "Schweiz 3000" and "Ostalpen 3000" books published by Rother Selection. When I noticed the new "Gratwandern Schweiz" guidebook by some of the same authors (congratz Pit, t2star and Omega3), I did not hesitate. There are plenty of great hiking ideas in there. Many routes were already known to me,...

After a careful study of the MeteoSchweiz wind forecast, looking for somewhere to escape the hurricane force Föhn winds, I ended up at the Grönhütte in the Justistal. The road here between Beatenberg and Sigriswil is a toll road (5 CHF; ticket machine) and there is parking some 100m past the Grönhütte in the direction of...

The Sibe Hängste is a mountain in the Entlebuch-Emmental region, an area that I've come to love for its selection of interesting, "day hike sized" mountains and for the great views on the transition from Mittelland into Berner Oberland. Though there are no official hiking paths on the Sibe Hängste, the traverse of the whole...

So... my first "official" T6. As always when taking things to a new level, there is the anxiety of the unknown: "how hard will it really be?" With T6 especially, there still seems to be a lot of variation in difficulty. Sometimes it looks "just like T5, only a bit more exposed"; yet other T6 routes appear more like "bloody...

The Tälli Klettersteig was, when it opened in 1993, the first real via ferrata in Switzerland. Through kletterportal.ch, I met up with Steffi to do this route, her first via ferrata, together. ---- The Tälli cable car starts immediately next to the Sustenpass road near Gadmen. Since you can see directly from the bottom...

I discovered kletterportal.ch on Friday, and already on Sunday I joined four other members on the Allmenalp Klettersteig in Kandersteg. The Kletterportal Partnersuche seems to be working great. I'll certainly try to use it more in future. The Allmenalp Klettersteig is my second Klettersteig in Switzerland, and certainly more...
