Route description

Sumit of Holzerhorn - Ramsere
This descent is does not follow a path and you may not always find the easiest way right away. Follow the east ridge to 1900 m and descend 100 m steeply to the north to reach the overgrown grassy slopes of Alp Äbnet. At 1600 m you enter the Äbnetwald, through which you must blunder to reach Ramsere.
Variant: Holzerhorn south flank (normal route)
You can also follow the Holzerhorn normal route through the south flank. Although marked with red coloured signs, it is not easy to find from the top. First descend slightly eastwards from the summit and down a gully into the south couloir. Leave this at the second marker to the west, in the following traverse to the west you climb up a little. Then descend on a fir-covered ledge to the slopes of Alp Nüschleten, which you reach about 30 metres below the start of the west ridge.
Variant: Ramsere - Taubental - Boltigen
Descent lengthened by 45 min.
