Bachflue – Maira (7b+/220m)
The route “Maira” was opened in 2012-2016 by Hannes Grossen and friends. As the first four pitches were significantly less beautiful than the rest, Mario Riedo, Adrian Voegeli and Emanuel Ruefenacht opened two new lengths in consultation with Hannes. These are a little more sporty than the upper part and the original version has been removed.
Important: A permit can be purchased at the Aellig bakery in Kiental for 10 CHF. As the area is located in the hunting ban area, camping is strictly prohibited! Please follow the rules so that you can continue to climb on the Bachfluh in the future.
