Climbing the 'Franziskus' route on Plombergstein is a delightful experience, often recommended for climbers looking to step into multi-pitch routes or enjoy a less demanding but rewarding day out. Graded 4+, it offers accessible climbing on good rock, blending scrambling with sections that require proper climbing technique. The route typically involves several pitches, leading you up the rock face with increasing exposure. One of the main highlights is the breathtaking panoramic view that unfolds as you ascend, particularly of the surrounding Salzkammergut lakes and mountains. The descent usually involves abseiling or a marked walking path. It's a fantastic route to enjoy the vertical world in a scenic and relatively safe environment.
