Summit of the Clariden

We head into the high mountains once again and undertake an easy but magnificent high-altitude ski tour. We take the Fisete cable car up and wind our way through the rocks, past the rock window to the Gemsfairenstock, which is rich in views. A great descent in the Sulz takes us to Claridenhütte, where we are spoilt by Angi and her crew. The next day we cross the Clariden. We start at dawn and climb over the gentle glacier on the final ascent to the Clariden and enjoy the mighty panorama of Tödi and Oberalpstock together! The descent is via a small ridge that is secured with chains. Here we have some more adventure before the long descent back to the Klausen Pass and Urnerboden!
