Gänsehaut

Tackling 'Gänsehaut,' a renowned 7- route at Peilstein, was an experience that truly lived up to its name. From the moment I committed to the first moves, the climb demanded full focus. It's a classic example of Peilstein's sustained, technical climbing – not overtly overhanging, but consistently challenging with small crimps and delicate footwork. The crux felt like a delicate dance, requiring precise body tension and a confident commitment to tiny holds. As I pushed through the pump, each clip felt like a small victory. Reaching the top, the views over the surrounding landscape were breathtaking, but even more satisfying was the feeling of having successfully navigated such an iconic line. It's a route that definitely leaves you with goosebumps – from the effort, the exposure, and the sheer joy of a well-executed climb.
