Very beautiful and easy alpine climbing tour in mostly solid, rough limestone. The turquoise-coloured reservoir provides a beautiful backdrop. The route is not often climbed, but spectators from the busy lake circuit are a certainty. Intermediate protection and belays are mostly self-belayed, there are only a few NHs.

Steil und ausgesetzt
Die Tour sieht anspruchsvoll aus, entpuppt sich aber als hinreichend zahm. Trotzdem ist die Wandkletterei durch den Südpfeiler der Roggspitze sehr ausgesetzt.

The most beautiful tour in the Silvretta. Hiking, scrambling, abseiling, glacier contact in a magnificent mountain setting.
Whether as a day tour or with an overnight stay at the Saarbrücker Hütte, it is an absolute highlight for climbing mountaineers.
However, you should be aware that the tour has many exposed passages and that you can only belay part of it.
Belaying must be done quickly and routinely so that you can finish the tour in daylight.
It's better to set off earlier and then enjoy a cool drink for longer at the Saarbrücker Hütte.

The east ridge on the Zimba is the most challenging variant on the Matterhorn of the Montafon. The upper III ridge must be climbed, and the protection is alpine.

Breezy, scenically grandiose ridge climbing in the midst of a breathtaking high mountain backdrop. Exposed steep uphills, gruelling intersections and smooth slabs up to the IV degree of difficulty demand a climber with climbing skills. The latter enjoys not only the compact limestone rock but also the deep views of the shimmering turquoise Spullersee lake;

Grobe(!) Linienführung durch den Südpfeiler

Wunderschöne Platte in der 3. Seillänge. Die querverlaufenden Einlagerungen ermöglichen eine Art "Treppensteigen"

Äußerst kletterfreundliche Strukturen

Der hätte mit Sicherheit einiges zu erzählen...

Die Schlüsselstelle - dank Politur ein "glatter" 4er.

Der steile Abschlusspfeiler: Man klettert auf der rechten Begrenzungskante des Kamins.

Die Steilheit im Pfeilerausstieg ist enorm - kaum zu glauben, dass man hier mit einem 3er hochkommt!

Tiefblick aus der letzten Seillänge. Einen luftigeren 3er muss man erst mal finden.

Nur noch wenige Meter bis zum Gipfel.
