Climbing the Zellerführe on the Wagendrischelhorn (Grade 3-/3) is a classic and rewarding alpine experience. This route offers a good introduction to alpine climbing at a moderate difficulty level, making it popular amongst climbers looking to expand their skills beyond single-pitch climbs. The route typically involves enjoyable scrambling sections interspersed with short, steeper pitches that require more focused climbing. Exposure is present, particularly higher up, adding to the overall alpine feel. While the difficulties remain within the described grade, route finding can be challenging in places, especially if the rock is wet or conditions are less than ideal. A good head for heights, confident movement on rock, and sound navigation skills are essential for a safe and enjoyable ascent. The summit of the Wagendrischelhorn provides stunning panoramic views of the surrounding Berchtesgaden Alps, making the effort well worthwhile.
