Silvan Schüpbach opens two routes on the Gross Wellhorn

The Bernese Silvan Schüpbach opens two heavy multi-pitcher trips on the northern pier of the Gross Wellhorn. Adrenalinchiubi (7c, 7b compulsory, 250 meter) as well as Röck u Zöpf (7c, 7b compulsory, 230 meter) are waiting for strong climbers.

“Anyone who appreciates perfect alpine limestone and is not afraid of the ascent will have a lot of fun here! A lonely, wild area with a romantic bivouac ”, so Silvan about the Gross Wellhorn and its two creations. As Silvan explained is Röck and Zöpf significantly more persistent and demanding than the Adrenalinchiubi. The hedge was good, even if wide (safe) crashes were possible.
