The normal route to the Chöpfenberg summit through the south flank is graded T4 in the SAC Wanderskala due to three steep sections equipped with chains to aid progress, quite necessarily in at least one instance, and some other moderately steep and exposed ground. The grading translation here to a grade II scramble reflects the competence required, if not the purity of the scrambling experience.
A handfull of other more demanding routes to the summit exist, including a rock climb on the south ridge (4c, French) and the somewhat vegetated (and vertiginous in parts) east ridge (PD, French / WS, German).
The north wall is home to a few bolted multipitch routes up to 7 pitches, some requiring gear, in the grade range 6a to 7c.
The SAC tourenportal has some freely available infomation: https://www.sac-cas.ch/de/huetten-und-touren/sac-tourenportal/choepfenberg-385/alpinklettern/
The approach from Innerthal has the benefit of passing right under the imposing 400m wall of the Bockmattli Grosser Turm.
