Introductory course climbing without bolts | clean and trad climbing mountain lake
Immerse yourself in the originality of climbing! In our programme you will get to know the world of alpine climbing and climb routes without bolts.
Mountain lake
In alpine climbing, it is not only your route-finding skills that are crucial, but also the safe use of mobile safety devices such as friends and cams. This original type of climbing requires technical skill and a careful approach, but offers unique experiences on untouched rock faces. We show you how to place mobile belays correctly, find the ideal line in the rock and build solid belays that meet the highest standards.
We spend the days in the best granite in Uri. The granite is well suited for friends and crampons and the routes in the granite often require them. The Bergseehütte is ideal for this and the beautiful bathing lake right next to the hut offers great refreshment.
Procedure & course content
Day 1: Arrival at the Göscheneralp and ascent to the Bergseehütte (approx. 2.5 hours). In the nearby climbing garden, which offers ideal conditions for climbing without bolts, we start with the first training content.
Day 2: Intensive training and climbing on short routes, for example on the stem of the Bergseeschijen. In the evening we plan the next day together and the multi-pitch route we will climb.
Day 3: Carrying out a longer climbing tour, for example on the Hochschijen. Finally, there is a joint course evaluation before the descent and journey home.Course contents
