Bierbauch

Climbing "Bierbauch" (5+) in the Lienz Dolomites/Gailtal Alps offers a fantastic alpine experience. The route, whose name translates to "Beer Belly," likely refers to the shape of the rock feature it climbs. Expect well-featured limestone with plenty of holds, but also be prepared for sustained climbing at the 5+ grade. Route finding is generally straightforward, but keep an eye out for the next bolt or marker. The views from the route are spectacular, showcasing the rugged beauty of the Lienz Dolomites. A standard rack of quickdraws and slings is recommended. Remember to check weather conditions before heading out and assess your and your partner's abilities honestly. Enjoy the climb!
