Climbing 'Spielplatz der Helden' (5+) on the Scharwand is a rewarding experience. This route, whose name translates to 'Playground of Heroes,' offers sustained climbing on solid limestone. Expect technical face climbing with small crimps and occasional positive holds. The crux often involves precise footwork and maintaining composure on slightly overhanging sections. While not overly strenuous, the route demands good technique and a head for heights. The views from the Scharwand are stunning, adding to the overall enjoyment of the climb. Be sure to bring enough quickdraws and a rope suitable for multipitch routes, and consider the exposure to the sun, especially during warmer months.
