Lederstrumpf

Climbing "Lederstrumpf" (6+) on the Hohe Wand is a classic experience. This route, named after the literary character Leatherstocking, offers a varied and enjoyable climb up the striking limestone cliffs. The crux of the route often involves a technical sequence or a slightly overhanging section that demands good footwork and body positioning. While the grade isn't excessively difficult, the route requires solid 6+ climbing skills and confidence on exposed terrain. The views from the Hohe Wand are spectacular, providing a rewarding backdrop as you ascend. Be sure to check the weather conditions before heading out, as the exposed nature of the cliffs can make climbing challenging in inclement weather. Careful planning and solid execution are key to a successful and memorable ascent of "Lederstrumpf".
