Climbing "Almauftrieb" (graded 7 in the UIAA scale) at the Fuchslochwand in Hohe Wand is a rewarding experience that demands a solid level of climbing skill and confidence. The route is known for its varied climbing, including technical face climbing, powerful sequences, and often, exposure that adds to the thrill. Expect sustained sections that test your endurance, interspersed with good rests (if you can find them!). The rock is typically solid limestone, but careful route finding and attention to holds are crucial. This climb is a classic of Hohe Wand and offers stunning views as a bonus. Preparation is key: bring sufficient quickdraws, be aware of the potential for loose rock (especially if it's a popular route), and have a reliable partner. Successfully sending "Almauftrieb" is a great achievement for any climber at this grade.
