Alpengasthof RauschbrunnenSafety information
Loose, steep, exposed terrain. Besides endurance for 2000 meters of elevation gain, surefootedness and helmet (!) are absolutely necessary.Roadbook
Approach: From Kranebitten via Kerschbuchhof to Rauschbrunnen. Then climb many switchbacks up to the Aspach Hut and further past a hunting hut until the normal route to Hohe Warte turns west. Follow this briefly through the dwarf pines, then traverse back to the ridge over a steep grassy slope. Follow this ridge to the start point.
Route: From the start point straight up (4) and belay at two normal bolts. Then continue in easy terrain (1-2) to the second rise, which can be climbed either straight up (4, few bolts) or left (2-3, no bolts). Then steeply continue directly on the ridge (2) to another rock step, which is bypassed slightly on the left (3). The ridge now leans backward until the summit is finally reached on walking terrain.
Descent: Steep marked path back to the starting point. Loose and exposed. Concentration is absolutely required here.
Directions
