The 'Kemptner Kante' on the Aggenstein is a popular and relatively accessible climbing route in the Bavarian Alps, graded at 4- (UIAA). It offers a rewarding experience for climbers with some experience, featuring exposed sections and beautiful views of the surrounding Allgäu region. The route follows a prominent arete (kante), hence the name, and requires solid footwork and good route-finding skills. While generally well-protected with bolts, bringing a small selection of cams or nuts can be beneficial for added security on some pitches. The crux typically lies within the first few pitches, demanding confident movement on slightly overhanging terrain. Successful completion of the Kemptner Kante rewards climbers with stunning panoramic views from the summit of Aggenstein and a feeling of accomplishment on a classic alpine climb. Remember to check weather conditions before attempting this route, as it can become treacherous in adverse conditions.
