Description

From Chamanna Jenatsch:

Safe conditions on the Vadret d'Err are required (30 - 35° to 100 m ascent). The summit ascent can be tricky in hard snow or even icing, crampons are then essential.

From the Chamanna Jenatsch (2652 m) to NW and through a steep valley to the Vadret d'Err. Over this in the middle steeply up (attention crevices), then over the glacier plateau in a northerly direction right past P. 3308 into the hollow at the foot of the summit structure. With skis over the steep E-slope to below the striking summit rocks. Ski depot. Now turn right through a steep snow channel into a saddle from N over light rocks to the summit. 2.5 hours

Departure: along the ascent route

Departure to Sur:

Great steep descent, but only for safe, alpine skiers and with ideal firn (average inclination 35° to 450 m ascent, in the upper part up to 45°). Occasionally also committed in ascension. The protected areas in the N and S of Sur must be observed.

Departure: From the ski depot to the saddle between Piz d'Err and P. 3308. Now through the SW couloir or, depending on the firn conditions, over the S-flank down into the large basin of Tellers Davains. Left of P. 2315 down into the plain of Alp Flix to Tgalucas (1969 m) on the Alpine road, finally over open meadow slopes to Sur (1537 m).

Departure to Val d'Err to Tinizong:

Challenging, alpine descent over the northern Vadret d'Err. Due to the retreat of the glacier, the steepness compared to the LK has increased (30° - 45° to 400 m ascent). The respective conditions must be explored in advance, as the downhill route from the summit is not visible, and the risk of crevices should not be underestimated. Impeccable visibility and experience in assessing the avalanche danger are a prerequisite.

Departure: from Skidepot to E and on the right edge of the glacier below the rocks of Corn Jenatsch (3165 m) right down into the huge basin of the Val d'Err. Through the gently inclined valley to alp d'Err and Alp Viglia (1974 m) and briefly follow the alpine path downhill to the bridge P. 1659 at Tgant Pensa. On the road or on the S-side of the stream you reach Tinizong (1232 m).
