Der Berchtesgadener Weg ist die klassische Route in der Watzmann-Ostwand, eine kaum enden wollende Kletterei in richtig gutem Fels – Traumtour mit Anspruch.

Diese Traum-Runde bietet alles, was der vielseitige Alpinist liebt. Wilde Landschaft, dazu eine einsame unmarkierte leichte Klettertour (bis III) in einer steilen Südwestwand, abschließend ein leichter Singletrail fast bis zum Auto. Die beste Bike-Hike&Climb-Tour im Bereich Lofer.

Alpine Climbing

recommended route
Difficulty
IV+, 4a+
easy

Logischer Logenplatz
Die kürzeste und einfachste Route an den Nordwestplatten der Schärtenspitze ist sehr gut abgesichert und darum perfekt für alpine Einsteiger (IV+).
Alpine Climbing
· Berchtesgaden Alps
Klettertour Blaueisumrahmung auf den Hochkalter in den Berchtesgadener Alpen
recommended route
Difficulty
IV
difficult
16.6 km
16:00 h
2,030 m
2,030 m
Klassisch & aussichtsreich
Die Blaueisumrahmung ist landschaftlich großartig und neben der Watzmann-Ostwand eine der klassischen Berchtesgadener Klettereien. Anspruchsvoll ist sie in psychischer Hinsicht wegen der Wegfindung und der mobilen Absicherung. Das Klettern selbst ist eher leicht.

As soon as you arrive below the wall after the arduous approach, you can expect some great climbing given the steepness.
Alpine Climbing

The Übeleck is located in one of the darkest corners of the Reiteralpe, and the sight of the steep forest makes your forehead sweat as soon as you reach the car park.

What initially looks like a slab armour from the valley turns out to be an extremely rewarding steep hole climb. As early as the first pitch of "Weder Blau noch Sand" (Neither Blue nor Sand), almost the entire hand disappears into a handle.
Alpine Climbing
· Berchtesgaden Alps
Hoher Göll - Trichterwiesl (ca.1800m) W-Wall - Wonderworld VIII (VIII- obl.)

After the first two smooth water groove pitches, there is only sharp, partly overhanging endurance climbing. Water grooves dominate the action at the beginning and end on holes and in the middle section.
