Description

One of the best bouldering spot in Europe, with an amazing alpine backdrop close to the Rhône Glacier. The feel of the great outdoors, with nothing less than an exceptional granite quality and lots of excellent magic lines scattered along the mountains. (Altitude : 2000-2600 m). Ideal in summer, fresh air, no ski resorts, rather long walks but generally not too steep on good paths (max elevation +300 m). Some areas can be reached in 10 min.
–Definitely a stoking experience ! But be prepared it's a wild environnement.
Best season : August-September
Over 1000 problems! And almost infinite potential for new developments (if you don’t fear long walks and savage height differences).

2024 update with new sectors : Passhöhe / Sidelen / Lochberg / Auf dem Ding / Wegelagerer/ Lipferstein/ Blauseeli.

Before starting your day, please download the topo, the network is sometimes instable. (Good cell phone service at Tatsch Parkplatz).

History

The development of bouldering in Furka started around 2014 with a group of Swiss climbers from Lucerne : Joel Häfliger, Samuel Burri, Patrick Nussbaum, Thomas Banz, M. Meier, Joy Heinrich, Moritz Walther, and more recently with Harald Röker who joined the team in 2019.
New sectors Sidelen / Passhöhe / Lochberg /Auf dem Ding /Wegelagerer / Lipferstein / Blauseeli are set up by unknown climbers of the Bimano team. Please share any info with the 27app or send it to ippe11@yahoo.fr. Thanks!
I also contributed to develop sectors Graue Wand / Hillside / Passhöhe / Lipferstein / Blauseeli.
