Rock type: The solid gneiss offers a range of great routes for beginner and intermediate levels which lead through some impressive steep terrain.

Protection / Material: The entire crag was re-bolted in June 2007 by Davos mountain guides with the support of the SAC.

Climbing for Kids: For older children who can cope with the longer approach; a great place for their first multi-pitch tours. However, the bolting is rather spaced here and does not perhaps meet the current standard for 'official' children-friendly routes.

Descent: Descent: an easy path leads north around the wall.

There is also an abseil-piste between the routes "Open Air" and "Sisyphus": 4 rappels (24 m / 23 m / 17 m / 20 m).

With half ropes it is possible to bypass the odd abseil station, but this greatly increases the chance of a stuck rope (there are many rock spikes and trees around) and is not recommended.
