Schwertzeit

Climbing 'Schwertzeit' (6+) in Trutzburg is a memorable experience. The route, whose name translates to 'Sword Time', lives up to its dramatic title. The initial section involves powerful pulls on crimps and pockets, demanding good finger strength and body tension. The rock is generally solid, but careful footwork is crucial, especially on the steeper sections. There are a couple of tricky sequences where precise movements are key to unlock the next hold. After the crux, the climbing eases off slightly, allowing you to recover before the final push to the anchor. The position high on the Trutzburg wall provides stunning views, making the effort all the more rewarding. It's a climb that requires both physical strength and a cool head, but the sense of accomplishment upon clipping the chains is immense.
