Crack

The route known simply as 'Crack' (grade 6+ UIAA) in the rugged Villgraten Mountains is a true alpine classic. It's renowned for its sustained and technical crack climbing, tracing an obvious, demanding line up the granite. This multi-pitch ascent provides a quintessential traditional climbing experience, where solid crack technique, stamina, and a cool head are paramount. Reaching the top offers not only a sense of accomplishment but also breathtaking panoramic views of the unspoiled East Tyrolean Alps. It's a must-do for climbers seeking challenging, high-quality rock in a spectacular, tranquil environment.
