Climbing 'Steile Minna - Burgstall,' a captivating grade 7 route in the scenic Burgstall area, is truly an experience to remember. As the name 'Steile Minna' (Steep Minna) suggests, this climb is characterized by its significant steepness, often demanding sustained power and precise footwork. It's a fantastic test of both physical endurance and mental focus, requiring climbers to find subtle crimps and execute delicate, yet powerful, moves through overhanging sections.
The rock quality is typically excellent, offering good friction, but the 'pump' factor is very real, especially on the more sustained sections where you're constantly fighting gravity. Reaching the top and taking in the panoramic views over Burgstall and the surrounding landscape is a fantastic reward, a testament to overcoming a challenging yet incredibly fun ascent. 'Steile Minna' stands out as a classic for a reason – it's a must-do for anyone looking to push their limits on a well-bolted, rewarding European sport climb.
