The Zervreilahorn is often referred to as the "Matterhorn of Vals" - and anyone who stands in front of it immediately understands why: striking, proud and visible from afar, it towers into the sky above the turquoise-coloured reservoir. The north-east ridge is the most elegant line on this beautifully shaped peak and offers an enjoyable multi-pitch tour on solid, structured rock - a real insider tip for anyone looking for alpine climbing away from the crowds.

This tour is a small alpine adventure with a great enjoyment factor that should not be underestimated: varied climbing, atmospheric scenery and a beautifully shaped summit that can be climbed with style and pleasure. Ideal for anyone longing for a long day full of exercise, nature and real ridge moments.

      From the car park Chäppeli We climb for around three hours to reach the start – if the opportunity arises, we shorten the route by taking (e-)mountain bikes, saving almost an hour of energy for what really matters: the climb. The approach takes around three hours and covers approximately 850 metres of elevation gain. Then the real fun begins! The rock surprises us with fantastic friction, good holds and varied routeing. In nine pitches, we steadily make our way towards the north summit – never extremely difficult, but consistently exciting, airy and rewarding.

      Once at the top, we are rewarded with a magnificent 360° panorama: the view sweeps over the Valsertal valley, the deep blue reservoir and the surrounding peaks – a perfect place for a short break, to take a deep breath and marvel at the scenery. The descent is via the Nanouk route, abseiling back to the foot of the wall, then on foot and possibly by bike back to the starting point. Finally, we enjoy a cool drink in one of the cosy inns in Vals and reflect on the tour.
