Feuer des Midgards - Verlorener Turm

The 'Lost Tower,' an imposing sentinel of ancient stone, presents a formidable challenge to any climber. Its most legendary ascent, 'Feuer des Midgards' (Fire of Midgard), graded 7+, is a true test of skill, strength, and mental fortitude. From the very first moves, the route demands precision: delicate finger cracks transition into exposed, friction-dependent slabs, culminating in a powerful, pumpy overhang that feels like wrestling a mythical beast.

Each hold on the rough, unforgiving rock is a deliberate choice, every breath measured. The wind, whispering tales of old, adds to the dramatic exposure as you ascend, battling not just gravity but your own limits. The crux, a masterclass in technical movement, pushes you to the edge, where only unwavering focus and commitment prevail.

Reaching the summit is a profound release. The panoramic views are breathtaking, a well-earned reward for the arduous journey. You stand atop the world, connected to the raw power of nature and the history of this ancient place. Descending, you carry the 'Fire of Midgards' within – the indelible mark of a challenge met and gloriously overcome.
