résumé

The Zillertal is a paradise for outdoor activities, amongst them all styles of climbing. From bouldering to sport climbing and alpine multi-pitch climbing and even ice climbing in winter.

description

Das Zillertal ist ein Paradies für Outdoor-Aktivitäten, darunter natürlich alle Varianten des Kletterns. Das Zillertal bietet alles, vom Bouldern über Sportklettern und alpines Mehrseillängenklettern bis hin zum Eisklettern im Winter.

Das Zillertal erstreckt sich südlich vom Inntal in die Zillertaler Alpen. Verschiedene Seitentäler (darunter der schöne Zillergrund) tragen zu seiner Attraktivität und seinen Klettermöglichkeiten bei. Klettern findet man sowohl im Talboden als auch hoch bis zu den höchsten Gipfeln. Während das meiste Klettern im Zillertal auf Granit stattfindet, bietet das Zillertal auch Kalksteinfelsen als auch Gneis an.

Aufgrund der verschiedenen Expositionen der Klettergebiete in verschiedenen Höhen kann das ganze Jahr über geklettert werden. Die wärmeren Jahreszeiten sind jedoch wahrscheinlich besser geeignet für einen Besuch, der sich auf das Klettern konzentriert.

Während viele Klettergebiete eine lange Geschichte haben, gibt es auch noch viel Neues und Gebiete in Entwicklung. Achte daher auf neue Ergänzungen bei bestehenden Klettergebieten, aber auch auf völlig neue Entwicklungen im gesamten Tal.

Klettergebiete sind taleinwärts geografisch aufgelistet.

The Ziller valley (Zillertal) stretches south from the Inn valley (Inntal) into the Zillertaler Alpen. Various side valleys (amongst them beautiful Zillergrund) add to its attractivity and climbing options. Climbing can be found in the valley bottoms as well as high up to the highest peaks. While most climbing is on granite, Zillertal also offers some limestone climbing as well as some gneiss.

You may climb year round due to the various exposures and crags on different altitudes. However, the warmer seasons are probably nicer for a visit focussing on climbing.

While many crags have a lot of history, there is still a lot of development ongoing, so watch out for new additions at existing crags but also completely new developments all along the valley.

Crags are sorted geographically as you drive into the valley.

Boulderinformation refers to the Zillertalguidebook by Markus Schwaiger

Limitations de l'accès

Some crags are on private land, please behave accordingly in order to maintain access. Also, certain crags experience seasonal closures, please be informed!

approche

Zillertal and its main town, Mayrhofen are easily reached from Innsbruck (about an hour drive).

où dormir

This is one of the most touristy places in Austria. You can find all sorts of accommodation, from camp sites to luxury hotels. Be aware that during high season - mostly summer, but also major public holidays and ski season - the whole valley can be quite crowded.

historique

It started all before the 1980's when mountain guides like Gerhard Hörhager senior and Andreas Aschenwald trained on the granite towers in front of the restaurant Breitlahner (now called "Ewige Jagdgründe"). In 1983 Darshano L. Rieser and Gerhard Hörhager junior freed the hitherto teaid climbed Schotterriss and called it "Sechsplosion". Redpointing was introduced to the Zillertal. Since then the development hasn't stopped.
