Kantenflug

Climbing Kantenflug in the Vienna Woods, a route graded 6+, is a rewarding experience that blends physical challenge with the beauty of nature. The "Kantenflug" itself translates to something like "Edge Flight," hinting at the airy positions and exposed climbing you can expect. The rock is typically limestone, providing good friction but also demanding precise footwork. Expect a combination of crimps, side pulls, and potentially some laybacking depending on your style. The crux often involves navigating a delicate traverse or a powerful move off a small hold to reach a more secure placement. Given the grade, a solid foundation in climbing technique is essential. Don't underestimate the psychological aspect either – the exposed nature of the route, especially near the top, can test your nerves. Successfully topping out "Kantenflug" offers a great sense of accomplishment and breathtaking views of the surrounding Vienna Woods. Be sure to check weather conditions beforehand and bring appropriate gear, including a rope suitable for sport climbing, quickdraws, and a belay device. Enjoy the climb!
