The 'Parstleswand Ostgrat' (East Ridge) on the Parstleswand is a highly regarded classic alpine climb, graded UIAA IV. This route offers an exhilarating experience, traversing a prominent, exposed ridge with a mix of scrambling and short, more challenging climbing sections. It's known for its continuous panoramic views of the surrounding peaks and valleys. While moderate in technical difficulty (Grade IV), its exposure and the length of the climb require good physical condition, sure-footedness, and some experience in alpine terrain.
