About Handegg (Grimsel Pass)

The birthplace of Swiss granite slab climbing — smooth, glacier-polished Aar-massif granite above the Handegg valley station (1378m) on the Grimsel Pass road. Slabs face broadly south-west and receive full sun from about 11am — mornings the rock is often damp from dew or cool air, dries fast once the sun hits. The Grimsel road is normally open early summer to late autumn; check for Kraftwerke Oberhasli power-station construction access notices before driving.

Region: Bernese Alps — Grimsel
