Climbing day tour with alternating alpine and Mediterranean ambiance. Highly recommended in the off-season. In late autumn, the fog boundary is often directly at the start.

Roadbook
By bus from Solothurn to Balm, approach about 40m to the start at 970 m above sea level. The first pitch is located to the left of the climbing sector "Schwere Wand". From now on, each pitch offers several alternatives, of which the easiest is the most obvious. Traverse on a short rope between the 4th and 5th pitches. Exit at the end of the 5th pitch or traverse to the tower, which is well worth it. Descent first along the ridge and then traverse left at a cairn onto the debris path.
