résumé

Small crag that is especially well suited for families and beginners.

description

Neat little crag with a picnic-place, grill, firewood and a shelter. The main attraction is the south-face of "Sector B" with several routes well suited for inexperienced climbers and kids.

There is a lot of variety in the quality of the routes, some loose rock, grading is a bit inconsitent and bolting is not always top-notch.

You'll also find a small via ferrata traversing all of the sectors.

approche

Follow the hiking trail past Hotel Klewenstock. Starting at the next fork, there are signs indicating the crag.
