Oberwald ***

The climbs in this mecca of cross country skiing in Goms are few in number, but certainly not to be missed. We have Orlando Theler and Raphi Imsand to thank for these fun routes. For years he cleaned and brushed away layers of thick moss and gave the rock a new life! Then with Raphi Imsand, they protected all the routes well with bolts. The “Lucky Luke” Sector is perfect for a casual family outing. The featured rock with its grippy pockets couldn’t be better for those first pulls in the vertical. In the fairy tale like woods, there is always something to discover and if you are lucky, maybe the old steam engine train will pass by the crag. The “Wolfspfad”  Sector is steep and the juggy climbing is thrilling! For those seeking more solitude, it is best to visit when the Pass is not open to traffic.
