Serpentinen

Climbing "Serpentinen" (graded 7+) on Arnstein Hauptwand is a memorable experience, demanding both technical skill and mental fortitude. The route snakes its way up the impressive main wall of Arnstein, known for its challenging and exposed climbing. The crux often lies in the intricate sequences, demanding precise footwork and body positioning to navigate the 'serpentine' features that give the route its name. Expect sustained climbing throughout, with few real rests. A solid understanding of crack climbing techniques is beneficial, although not always strictly necessary. The exposure adds to the thrill, offering breathtaking views over the surrounding landscape, but also requiring a calm head. Successfully sending "Serpentinen" is a proud achievement for any climber pushing their limits in the Frankenjura.
