Approach

You can access this via different climbing routes: Huterlaner or Zimmereben. However, the logical entry point is the Pfeilspitzwand climbing route. Right at the exit of the Pfeilspitzwand climbing route, you will find the entry to the Astegg climbing route.

Descent

The descent follows the newly constructed hiking trail directly to the Gasthof Zimmereben and continues along Trail No. C2 back to the starting point. Alternatively, you can combine the descent with a lovely hike to the Alpengasthof Astegg and continue on to Finkenberg.
