Description Suggest change

A high point on the lengthy granite ridge above the Oberalp pass, composed of giant, near-vertical granite slabs lined up one behind the next. The south/southeast face of the Gross Schijen gets plenty of sun until very late in the day.

The area sees limited traffic.

Getting There Suggest change

See general description for climbing at the Oberalp pass. Use the east-west trail running above the Lutersee to get as close as possible to the southeast pillar, then hike/scramble up to the base.
