Urquell

Climbing "Urquell" (8-) in Hohe Wand was an incredible experience. The route follows a strikingly beautiful line, demanding a combination of technical crimping, powerful pulls on slightly overhanging rock, and delicate footwork. The crux section, I found, involved a tricky sequence of thin holds that required precise body positioning and a mental commitment to stick the reach. Above the crux, the climbing eases slightly, but it still requires focus until the anchors. The exposure on Hohe Wand is always a factor, adding to the overall thrill of the climb. A highly recommended route for anyone looking for a challenging and rewarding experience in a spectacular setting.
