Neutour

Climbing 'Neutour' (grade 8) in the Upper Austrian Prealps is a formidable undertaking. This multi-pitch route, likely established recently (implied by the name 'Neutour', meaning 'New Tour'), demands a high level of technical proficiency, physical endurance, and mental fortitude. The limestone rock of the Prealps can be notoriously unforgiving, offering a mix of sharp holds, smooth slabs, and potentially loose rock depending on the specific area. The overall style of the climb will heavily influence the experience; expect challenging sequences requiring precise footwork, dynamic movement, and often intricate rope management. Protection might be sparse or require the placement of trad gear in sections, further elevating the difficulty. Success on 'Neutour' at grade 8 in this region represents a significant achievement, a testament to the climber's skill and dedication to the craft.
