Spieglein

Climbing "Spieglein" (mirror in German) in the Berchtesgaden Alps is a fantastic experience for intermediate climbers. Graded at 6+/7- (UIAA), it's a challenging but rewarding route offering stunning views and a varied climbing style. Expect well-bolted sections interspersed with run-out sections requiring solid route-finding skills and confidence in your abilities. The rock quality is generally good, but be prepared for some loose sections, particularly on ledges. The crux often involves technical face climbing and overcoming slight overhangs. Proper gear placement is crucial in the less protected areas. Bring a selection of quickdraws, a few longer slings, and a rope suitable for multi-pitch climbing. The approach and descent should be carefully planned and considered, as they can be demanding. Overall, "Spieglein" is a classic Berchtesgaden climb, providing a memorable adventure in a beautiful Alpine setting.
