Schwerelos

Climbing "Schwerelos" (8/8+) in "Unten im Wald Ost" was an unforgettable experience. The route is aptly named, as the movement feels incredibly weightless despite the physical demands. The initial section involves technical crimping and precise footwork on slightly overhanging rock. You're constantly searching for the right body position to efficiently use your energy. The crux comes about halfway up, requiring a powerful sequence on small holds, often involving a dynamic reach or a tricky foot placement. This section is mentally challenging, demanding commitment and precision. After the crux, the climbing eases slightly, but the pump is already setting in, requiring careful management of remaining energy reserves. The final moves to the anchor are still engaging, ensuring you're focused until the very end. "Schwerelos" is a route that rewards strong technique, mental fortitude, and the ability to read the rock. It's a true test of both physical and mental strength, leaving you feeling both exhausted and incredibly satisfied.
