sportclimbing eastern Zwitserland

After our rainy experience in the Bernese Alps we drove back to the eastern part of Zwitserland where Nando is living. We had some nice sport climbing days in Berschis and Haldenstein. Also the rescue techniques training sessions very really nice.

The Kanton Graubünden (east part of Zwitserland) offers loads of opportunities for sportclimbing, multipitch climbing and alpine climbing. The rhine valley has a very mild climate and you can climb almost all year round (no, of course I am not jealous...).

A week later we have been to the Julier pass climbing "Römerweg". A 11 pitch well bolted route with 6a max.... Down in the valley it was 33 degrees or so and up on the pass it was 20 degrees with quite a lot of wind...

Good topos you can find in the Swiss plaisier guiding books "east" and the "extreme east". If you plan to stay there longer the SAC climbing guide http://www.weltbild.ch/3/18069051-1/buch/kletterfuehrer-graubuenden.html is recommended.
