    Small double summit south of the Chammliberg. The more impressive southern summit is shown as lower on the maps, but is probably approximately the same height. The tower-like southern summit is probably somewhat more difficult and can only be reached by climbing. Unfortunately, there is no route description, and the transition from the north summit is also not visible.

    The north summit coded 3026 m is better reached by bypassing the summit structure on the west side (lots of loose scree!) and climbing from the south.

    Safety information

    Glacier crossing – roping up is absolutely necessary.

    Roadbook

    From the Planurahütte, briefly descend into a saddle and then ascend again along the edge of the wind hollow. Now first go north in the direction of the Claridenpass and after about 1 km descend slightly to the northwest into the glacier basin below the Chammlijoch. Now ascend westward until just below the beginning of the east face of the Chammliberg. Here, head southwest towards the clearly pronounced saddle at point 2974 (Caution: due to rockfall, you should not go too close to the wall!). From the saddle head south, over a small rock step (II) to a small plateau below the summit structure. A direct ascent of the summit is not necessarily worthwhile; the rock at the summit structure is brittle, and the summit has room for no more than 2 people.

    The descent is along the same route back to the point where you reached the beginning of the wall of the Chammliberg. Ascend northwards into the Chammlijoch and then descend on the north side over the Iswändli down to the start of the rocks. Now descend to the Klausenpass via a path which shortly afterwards is also marked blue-white.
