Climb up the steep slope from Klausenpass in the direction of Süden holding. Then bypass the Rau Stöckli westwards in a gully. While doing so, follow the Tierälpligrat onto the north-west spur and climb up on rock steps to the Iswändli. Now climb up the spur, partly steeply, to the Iswändli.

Author’s recommendation

The ascent is not to be underestimated. The west grade is secured with chains.
