The "Kameradschaft" is a newly established alpine-style climbing route on the Hohe Wand in the Gutensteiner Alps, Austria. First ascended in May 2023 by Kilian Lommer and Jakob Scheler, this route offers climbers a blend of technical challenges and scenic beauty.


Route Overview:

  • Difficulty: The route is rated 6 (UIAA), with an obligatory 5+ (UIAA) difficulty, indicating a moderate level of challenge suitable for climbers with intermediate experience.


  • Length: Approximately 140 meters of climbing, divided into five pitches.


  • Climbing Duration: Typically completed in around 3 hours, depending on the climber's experience and conditions.


  • Approach: The approach involves a 15-minute hike from the parking area to the base of the route.


Route Characteristics:

"Kameradschaft" features well-protected climbing with bolts, offering a mix of technical sections and enjoyable passages. The route is characterized by a large "rain gutter" feature and ends just before an overhanging section.


Equipment and Safety:

Climbers should be equipped with standard multi-pitch climbing gear, including:

  • Helmet and Harness: Essential for safety.

  • 50-meter Single Rope: Suitable for the route's length.

  • 10 Quickdraws: For the bolted sections.

The route is well-protected with bolts, but climbers should have prior experience with multi-pitch climbing and be prepared for variable weather conditions.


Descent:

After completing the climb, descend via abseiling over the route using a 70-meter single rope or double ropes. Be cautious of potential rockfall, especially in the second pitch area where the route crosses a scree-filled gully.


Additional Information:

The Hohe Wand area offers several climbing routes suitable for various skill levels. For those interested in exploring more, the "Gebirgsvereins Klettersteig" is another popular climb in the area.
