Normal route from the Fridolinshfctte via the Bifertenfirn and the south ridge

2A | PD | II Edit route
This is the standard documented alpine route to Vrenelisge4rtli and is usually climbed from the Fridolinshfctte. The route crosses the Bifertenfirn glacier and then gains the summit by the south ridge. It is a classic glacier-and-ridge ascent with straightforward but serious alpine terrain. Typical difficulties are crevasse travel, snow conditions on the glacier, and route-finding on the upper ridge. The route is generally considered a moderate mountaineering objective rather than a technical rock climb. Conditions can vary significantly with season and glacier coverage, so rope, crampons, and glacier travel skills are required.
