The Sulzfluh is a mountain in the Rätikon mountain range (in the Alps), located on the border between Austria and Switzerland.
It is well known by climbers and has a Via ferrata on the southern, Swiss face, the Graubünden. There are a total of six known caves into the limestone mountain, with lengths between 800 to 3000 or more yards, with all entrances on the Eastern side, in Switzerland.[2]
The eastern side has a mountain path, of grade T4,[3] allowing non-climbers to reach the 2817 metre summit. This is part of a multi day walking route along the entire length of the Rätikon chain on the sunnier side, called "Prättigauer Höhenweg".[4]
