Climbing the "Cassin - Preußturm Südostwand" on the Preußturm is a serious and committing alpine undertaking. Graded 7- (UIAA), this route demands solid technical skills, physical endurance, and mental fortitude. The Southeast Face presents a challenging and sustained sequence of demanding pitches, characterized by steep, often sparsely protected climbing on generally good but sometimes loose rock. Route finding is crucial, as the line isn't always obvious, and the altitude adds another layer of complexity. A successful ascent requires careful planning, excellent teamwork, and the ability to adapt to changing mountain conditions. The reward for this effort is the summit of the Preußturm and the satisfaction of overcoming a truly memorable alpine challenge.
