Climbing the Nieberlweg (Grade 5) in the Graz Mountains is a truly rewarding experience. This classic route offers a mix of engaging climbing moves, exposed traverses, and breathtaking views. The rock is generally solid, although some sections might require careful footwork. The exposure can be significant, adding an element of thrill to the ascent. While technically not overly demanding at grade 5, the overall length and sustained nature of the route require good endurance and solid climbing technique. A well-placed cam or two can offer additional security in some spots, but the existing protection is generally adequate. Reaching the summit after tackling the Nieberlweg provides a fantastic sense of accomplishment, coupled with panoramic vistas of the Graz region. A memorable climb for any experienced climber looking for a classic alpine adventure.
