Unterbäch NE climb

A short, very steep climb above Unterbäch in Valais. The hardest 500 metres average 22.1% and come almost at once, before your legs have settled. Expect 10 to 17 minutes. Its 3.0 TEP puts it in the easier half of the catalogue. Facing northeast, it loses the sun before midday and keeps its snow into spring. Graded demanding mountain hiking, meaning footing matters more than fitness in places. The nearest named summit, Rieberg at 2,961 m, is 459 m away.
