Rentnerweg und Hasipfeiler - Plombergstein

Climbing "Rentnerweg und Hasipfeiler" (grade 5/5+) on Plombergstein is a classic and enjoyable experience. This route, translated as "Pensioner's Path and Hasi Pillar," offers a good introduction to Plombergstein's climbing style. The route generally follows well-protected and relatively easy terrain, earning its reputation as accessible. However, the 5/5+ grade indicates that some sections require precise footwork, confident movement, and a good understanding of slab climbing techniques.

Expect a mixture of slabby sections with good friction, steeper steps with larger holds, and occasionally, slightly exposed positions. The rock is typically solid limestone, but checking holds for looseness is always prudent. While well-bolted, bring quickdraws suited for sport climbing and be prepared for potentially long runouts in some sections, particularly on the slab. The views from the top are rewarding, offering panoramic vistas of the surrounding lake and mountains. Overall, "Rentnerweg und Hasipfeiler" is a fantastic choice for climbers looking for a moderate, scenic, and well-protected climb on Plombergstein, perfect for warming up or enjoying a day out on the rock.
