Climbing route Schräger Riss

Description

A prime example of the many classic routes on the Gimpel north face not described in this guide. The impressive crack and slab climbing is very rarely done and offers alpine ambitious climbers a real adventure. A few old rusty hooks demand the full wedge set, possibly also a few normal hooks and quite sovereign climbing.

The direct variant to the 3rd stand is even more demanding in every respect.
After the grass band the route follows the NE edge.
