Sattolwäschi
This post is also available in: Deutsch Français Italiano
The climbing routes on the huge slab walls in the front of Baltschieder Valley are very rewarding climbing destinations far away from the summer heat. If it is too cold in Wiwanni to hold small handles, this section offers well-secured routes, best climbing on ledges, surprising holes and slabs. Pfyfolter or Geisleitra are recommended as an introduction — the key passages are short and the climbing is great. The other routes are mostly more persistent and demanding. Already the 1.5‑hour access to the climbing paradise of Sattolwäschi is very varied beautiful.
Access: from Ausserberg along the water pipe of Niwärch to the Baltschieder valley. From Choruderri parking in about 1.15 hours of the water pipe along to the climbing rocks. Parking permission can be purchased at the parking machine in Ausserberg.
Safeguarding: Very good
Descent: Rappel over the routes.
Equipment: 50 m double rope, 18 quick-draws, runners for lengthening.
Renate and Roland Kernen, Hanspeter Kernen and Sandro Perren have extensively renovated the routes.
