Climbing 'Terra Incognita - Schwabenkar' (grade 6) in the Hochschwab is a true alpine adventure. This multi-pitch route in the remote Schwabenkar face offers demanding climbing on excellent limestone, though some sections can be looser. The grade 6 pitches are sustained and require good technique and mental fortitude. The exposure is significant, and the views of the surrounding Hochschwab massif are breathtaking. It's a full-day commitment, starting with a significant approach, tackling the climb, and then navigating a complex descent, often involving rappels and a long hike out. 'Terra Incognita' truly lives up to its name, offering a sense of exploration and a memorable challenge in a magnificent natural setting.
