Rock climbing & fixed rope route (via ferreta)

Climbing outside on the rocks on prepared and well-maintained topos or on a via ferrata. At the top you are rewarded with the feeling of "wow - I've achieved something" - and it's not unusual to enjoy a beautiful view. Both have their appeal for those who have been indulging in their hobby for a long time, but also for anyone who wants to give it a try.

Rock climbing The fascinating sport in which you get closer than ever to a rock face or ice. In the Simmental and Saanenland, beginners and experienced climbers alike can get their money's worth in various climbing gardens. Whether from the valley floor or in the mountains. The topos offer a range of difficulty between 2 and 8a or WI V+ and M6 - M9+ for ice climbing and drytool routes. Although the topos are checked on an ongoing basis, the tour builders cannot be held liable for any accidents. All climbers are responsible for their own safety when climbing. Local mountain guides are also happy to organise a tailor-made tour with guests. Climbing gardens/topos in the region:
