Plattentanzer

Climbing 'Plattentanzer,' graded 6+, in the majestic Allgäu Alps is an experience that truly captures the essence of alpine sport climbing. This route, a local classic, is renowned for its sustained and technical climbing on excellent limestone. You can expect a variety of moves, from delicate face climbing on small crimps and pockets to more powerful sequences through subtle overhangs. The exposure builds wonderfully with each pitch, culminating in breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding peaks and valleys. The crux often lies in a demanding slab or a tricky, slightly overhanging section, requiring precise footwork and good body tension. Protection is generally excellent, mostly well-bolted, making it a safe yet challenging endeavor. 'Plattentanzer' is more than just a climb; it's a journey through the vertical world, offering a deep sense of accomplishment and immersion in the stunning Allgäu scenery. It's best enjoyed on a sunny day, when the rock is warm and the views are clear.
