Sei Prophet - Taufenkopf

Climbing "Sei Prophet" (7-) on the Taufenkopf is an experience etched in my memory. The Taufenkopf itself is a dramatic and imposing peak, and this route adds to that feeling of exposure and challenge. The rock is generally solid, but demands precise footwork and thoughtful movement. There are no easy rests to be found; each hold feels earned. The crux section, often near the roof, requires a burst of power and a bit of cunning to unlock the sequence. Reaching the chains after a sustained effort is a true feeling of accomplishment, rewarded with stunning views stretching across the surrounding landscape. "Sei Prophet" isn't just a climb; it's a test of technique, stamina, and mental fortitude on a truly iconic piece of rock.
