Climbing the "Bogenverschneidung" (grade 5+) on the Trogkofel/Creta di Aip's south face pillar is a memorable alpine experience. This classic route offers engaging climbing on solid, often slightly overhanging, rock. The crux usually involves navigating the namesake "Bogenverschneidung," an arched corner that demands good technique and careful footwork. While the difficulty might not be extreme, the exposure and sustained nature of the climbing, combined with the alpine environment, make it a serious undertaking. Proper gear placement and route finding are essential. The views from the pillar are breathtaking, stretching across the Carnic Alps. Be prepared for a demanding day, both physically and mentally, and remember to check weather conditions and rock quality before embarking on this rewarding adventure.
