Climbing route Rote Flüh Südwestwand

Description

The wide wall line of the south-west face and the south face of the Rote Flüh is one of the most interesting and popular climbing destinations of the Tannheim mountains. In contrast to the Gimpel Südwand, almost all skill levels can be found here. 

The palette ranges from practice routes suitable for beginners such as the "Westwandrampe" to the neighbouring modern sport climbing routes.

In the last ten years, Walter Hölzler from Oberstaufen on the Rote Flüh in particular has repeatedly sought out new territory. In doing so, he discovered new, partly contemporary steep athletic pitches and often linked them with the rewarding parts of forgotten old paths. With a great deal of time invested, he managed to achieve great routes such as the "Spiderman" and three new climbing routes on the long-forgotten west face of the Rote Flüh.

These new routes are all equipped for sport climbing. All of the worthwhile older climbs were triggered in 1997/98 and restored by a rope team crash on the "southwest wall". The classic routes in the Tannhemern therefore still have their character despite the boreholes.
