Climbing the "Totenköpfl - Unterer Nordpfeiler" (Lower North Pillar) offers a classic and enjoyable alpine experience. Graded at 4+, it's accessible to climbers with some experience in alpine terrain. The route typically involves engaging and varied climbing on solid rock, with some exposure. Expect a mix of slab climbing, cracks, and occasional steeper sections. Good footwork and solid rope management are essential. The views from the pillar, overlooking the surrounding landscape, are a definite highlight. The Totenkopf, though somewhat ominously named (Death's Head), provides a beautiful setting for a rewarding climb.
