Climbing 'Sunsett' (7+) on the Zahrinkogel, part of the magnificent Gosaukamm, is an unforgettable multi-pitch experience. This route, graded 7+ and thus demanding, is renowned for its excellent limestone, consistent climbing, and exposed sections. The pitches flow beautifully, often on superb Dachstein limestone, leading through varied terrain that includes steep walls and technical slabs. The crux pitch, a sustained 7+, truly tests technique and endurance. What truly sets 'Sunsett' apart are the breathtaking panoramic views of the Gosaukamm and the surrounding Dachstein massif that unfold as you ascend. After topping out, the descent typically involves multiple rappels down the route itself or a designated rappel line, bringing an exhilarating adventure to a satisfying close. 'Sunsett' is a modern classic, offering a rewarding challenge amidst an iconic alpine backdrop.
