Climbing "Obere Burgstallwand - Burgstall" on the Burgstall Face is a classic experience for climbers operating around the 5- grade. The route, typically around 5- (UIAA), presents a good mix of climbing styles, requiring a solid foundation in face climbing techniques. Expect to encounter varied rock features such as slabs, small crimps, and potentially some slightly overhanging sections. While the grade suggests a moderate challenge, attention to footwork and efficient movement is crucial for a smooth ascent. Protection is generally considered adequate, with bolts placed at reasonable intervals, but bringing a small rack of cams and nuts for supplementing gear in between bolts can provide extra security, especially for those new to the area or leading at their limit. The Burgstall Face itself offers stunning views, adding to the overall enjoyment of the climb. Be sure to check weather conditions beforehand, as the face can be exposed. Overall, "Obere Burgstallwand - Burgstall" is a highly recommended route for climbers looking for a rewarding and well-protected climb in a beautiful setting.
