Climbing the 'Straßenüberhang' (Road Overhang), a classic grade 6- (UIAA) route in the Totes Gebirge, offers an exhilarating alpine experience. True to its name, the route features a prominent, exposed overhang that provides a thrilling challenge on solid limestone. While rated 6-, it demands good technique and a steady head for heights, typical for the rugged and awe-inspiring environment of the 'Dead Mountains'. The climbing is varied, often on steep, well-structured rock, leading to a memorable ascent with stunning views. It's a popular choice for climbers seeking an accessible yet genuinely alpine adventure in this unique Austrian mountain range.
