🧗 The route

Itinéraire principalAD

Opened in summer 2024 in the Ratschingstal, near Sterzing (Vipiteno). It starts up a steep wall, then the route alternates between C sections and easier stretches. Two optional E variants (“Plattenschleicher” on a steep slab, and a section under overhanging roofs) also make it one for experienced climbers only; despite some sources labelling it “beginners”, user feedback rates it as demanding. There is a short children's route on site.

Elevation gain: about 370 mDuration: about 3 hVariantes : E (optionnelles)
