Reissend Nollen, Mountain summit in Urner Alps, Switzerland
Description
Reissend Nollen is a mountain summit positioned between Titlis and Grosser Wendenstock, featuring steep south-facing walls. The peak is covered by glacial terrain that requires climbers to navigate mixed rock and ice sections.
History
The climbing routes on the peak were established in the late 1800s as mountaineers began exploring the more challenging alpine summits. This development was part of the broader growth of alpinism in Switzerland during that era.
Culture
The mountain serves as a training ground for experienced alpine guides in the region. Local climbers from Engelberg view it as an important stepping stone for progressing to harder peaks.
Practical
Visitors should come equipped with ice axes, crampons, and rope due to the steep and icy terrain. Engelberg serves as the main starting point for climbers attempting the route.
Did you know?
The mountain appears completely different depending on where you view it from: a broad wall from Engelberg and a sharp ridge from Klein Titlis. These contrasting perspectives add to the intrigue when planning an ascent.
