Archeopterix

Climbing 'Archeopterix' (5-) in the Wasserrillen area (25-30m) is a delightful experience. The route name, evocative of the ancient bird, hints at the graceful and sometimes challenging moves required to ascend. The rock, shaped by water over time, offers interesting features like small pockets and subtle crimps, demanding precise footwork and balanced body positioning. While not excessively difficult at a grade of 5-, it presents a rewarding challenge for climbers looking to improve their technique on varied terrain. The sustained length of 25-30 meters requires good endurance, making it a perfect climb for a full day out at the crag. Expect a good mix of slab and slightly overhanging sections, making for a truly enjoyable and memorable climb in the Wasserrillen.
