Kleine Kante

Climbing the 'Kleine Kante' (5-) in the Tennen Mountains is a classic alpine adventure. The route, though not overly difficult in terms of technical grade, offers stunning exposure and requires solid alpine experience. Expect mostly solid limestone with good holds, but also the occasional loose rock, especially in the gullies. The views from the route, particularly towards the Salzach valley, are breathtaking. The approach often involves a significant hike and may include some exposed scrambling. A head for heights is essential, as is the ability to manage your own protection effectively. While the route is relatively short, the overall experience – the alpine environment, the exposure, and the rewarding summit – makes 'Kleine Kante' a memorable climb.
