Plattenschleicher

Climbing "Plattenschleicher" (4+) in the Vienna Woods is a delightful experience for beginner to intermediate climbers. This route, whose name translates roughly to "Slab Slider", is characterized by its gently sloping slab face, offering a technical challenge rather than a strenuous one. The rock is generally solid, providing good friction, and the bolting is typically well-spaced and reliable, making it a good introduction to slab climbing. While the 4+ grade might suggest an easy climb, the route demands careful footwork, precise weight distribution, and a calm head. The surrounding Vienna Woods provide a beautiful and tranquil setting, adding to the overall enjoyment of the climb. Remember to check current conditions and regulations before heading out, and always climb with a competent partner.
