The Wiwannihorn can be climbed easily on its normal route with proper equipment. Several more technical, multi-pitch free climbing and alpine climbing routes lead to the top as well. The most famous is probably the Steinadlerroute. The basecamp for climbing the Wiwannihorn is the Wiwanni hut [3] that is accessible from Ausserberg via a hiking trail or a via ferrata through the Baltschieder valley.
