The ascent is not particularly difficult for the experienced. Therefore, on beautiful mountain days, one must expect large crowds, especially since the border summit is also climbed from Austria – namely from the Tilisunahütte, which we can visit on the descent. Since 2006, a via ferrata has also contributed to the popularity of the peak.
From parking lot 6 along a footpath to the Gasthaus Alpenrösli in Partnun. Further with good altitude gain into the "Sulz." Finally, the path leads diagonally upwards to the rock cliffs below the Gemschtobel. These rock cliffs are the key section of the ascent. This leads to the huge cirque of the Gemschtobel. Through scree and over rocky outcrops to the broad ridge and further to the summit cross of the Sulzfluh.
