Rocketride

Rocketride, a classic sport climb in the Türnitzer Alps, offers a steep and engaging test for experienced climbers. Graded 8+ (French scale), it's known for its powerful sequences on small crimps and challenging body positions. The route typically requires a combination of strength, technique, and endurance to successfully send. Climbers often describe the crux as involving a dynamic move to a small, sharp hold, followed by a series of precise foot placements.

Approaching the climb involves a scenic hike through the beautiful alpine landscape. The rock itself is generally solid limestone, but careful inspection of holds is always advised. Due to its popularity and challenging nature, Rocketride can sometimes be crowded, especially on weekends. A successful ascent is a rewarding accomplishment, offering stunning views of the surrounding peaks as a well-earned bonus.
