Tour description

Heinrich Hueter Hut - Zimba col - Zimba - same way back

A real challenge in the Rätikon is the ascent of the Zimba. For generations, the 2,643-meter-high mountain has fascinated alpinists across the country. Due to its extraordinary shape, the Zimba is often described as the Montafon Matterhorn. Neither a hiking trail nor a via ferrata leads to the summit, and it takes courage, a good head for heights, and stamina to master the demanding rock tour of difficulty grade III.
