Description

A valley in the Zurich Oberland with numerous climbs, mostly short and mostly easy. So a popular destination for classes and groups! Some easy walk-ups for toproping, as well.

But also a few quite fun multipitiches which step up through the forest, making an enjoyable day out.

The valley is around 700 m only, so does not form ice so early or stay so long.

Getting There

Drive to town of Steg. Follow signs for "Orüti", leads you to a little village at start of the valley. You can drive down the road (despite "no cars" sign, if you're willing to risk it) and park at a wide parking lot. Hike 30 min or so along the valley, passing an impressive large waterfall along the way.
