The 'Via Veterano' on the imposing Rote Wand, a classic multi-pitch route graded 7-, offers a truly memorable climbing experience. Known for its excellent quality limestone and often exposed, airy pitches, it presents a sustained challenge that demands both technical skill and endurance. Each pitch unfolds with stunning views of the surrounding alpine landscape, making the physical exertion incredibly rewarding. The '7-' grade, while not extreme, ensures a continuous test, particularly on its well-bolted but engaging cruxes. Successfully topping out after navigating its impressive length leaves one with a profound sense of accomplishment and the satisfaction of having conquered a true Rote Wand classic.
