On a sunny day it is necessary to overcome the steep slope below the Schönbielhorn in good time. More precisely above the edge of the Hohwäng glacier up to an altitude of 3200 m. Continue with a slight ascent along this glacier in a northeastern direction above the level of the Col Durand saddle.

If you follow the ascent route, watch out for avalanches and snow slides that come from the Schönbielhorn in the afternoon sun.
