Climbing 'Altweibersommer - Altweibasumma', a route graded 7- at Penkenjoch, is a memorable experience. The Penkenjoch area is known for its stunning alpine scenery and challenging climbs. This particular route likely offers a mix of technical climbing, demanding holds, and perhaps some exposure, typical of routes at this grade in the Alps. The name itself, translating to 'Indian Summer' or 'Old Women's Summer', suggests it's best enjoyed during the pleasant, late-season weather window that often blesses the region. Sending this route would require a good level of fitness, solid technique, and perhaps some prior experience with similar grades and rock types. The views from the Penkenjoch are spectacular, making the effort well worth it.
