Climbing "Ride On" (7+) on the Eichhorngrat North Face in the Wetterstein Mountains and Mieminger Chain is a serious undertaking, demanding a high level of both physical and mental fortitude. This route, known for its challenging and often exposed climbing, winds its way up the imposing north face, presenting a mixture of sustained technical sections and moments of breathtaking exposure. The rock quality can vary, requiring careful footwork and considered gear placements. Climbers can expect demanding sequences of crimps, pockets, and often less-than-ideal holds, forcing them to utilize all their skills and experience. Beyond the technical difficulties, the sheer scale of the wall and the potential for unpredictable mountain weather add another layer of complexity. A successful ascent requires not only proficiency in rock climbing, but also a deep understanding of alpine safety, route finding, and self-reliance. Preparation, experience, and a healthy dose of respect for the mountain are essential before attempting "Ride On". A first ascent experience is highly recommended before trying this route.
