The 'Glocknergrat Gratüberschreitung' (ridge traverse) near Mödling in Hinterbrühl is a highly popular and scenic climbing route graded 3+. This classic offers an engaging and varied experience, combining scrambling, short climbing pitches, and exposed traverses along a beautiful ridge line. Despite its proximity to Vienna, it provides a surprisingly alpine feel with fantastic views of the Wienerwald. It's an excellent choice for climbers looking for a longer, multi-pitch adventure at a moderate difficulty, perfect for consolidating skills or enjoying a less committing but rewarding ridge traverse. The route is generally well-protected in the more technical sections, often with bolts, and the approach/descent are straightforward via marked hiking paths. A truly enjoyable outing for climbers comfortable with the grade.
