The Glärnisch - massive and mysterious. The three-peaked massif of Glärnisch is not even 3000 meters high, but it is impressive in its dimensions. Its north face drops 2000 meters into the Klöntal, one of the most beautiful and historically interesting mountain valleys in the Alps. Legends of visionary power surround the Vrenelisgärtli, the most famous peak, with origins traced by Emil Zopfi, from the Celts to Saint Verena. Even today's "Vrenelis" have a voice, such as the ski racer Vreni Schneider. Throughout the history of its ascent, interesting personalities have left their mark: naturalists, theologians, artists, later Nobel laureates, and leading scientists like astrophysicist and rocket researcher Fritz Zwicky. In recent times, the sport climbing generation has discovered the mountain and established new routes, led by Felix Ortlieb, climber, artist, and Au.
