フォルスタウの絶景の山頂・トップ20

Dachstein coming from the south is quite a challenge. At least 800 meters of often vertical rock face are very impressive. The shoulder climb is underestimated by many tourists. For me, the first 30 meters or so of the start is more of a "C". And you think the KS is short. Wrong. The climb overcomes the summit structure in several stages and is quite long. But it is really 🥰if the weather is right. To descend, I took the Randkluftsteig to the glacier. It is anything but trivial at the bottom because there is no rope for the last 20 meters. But there are steel pins and a few clamps. You can only be properly secured with a rope partner. OK, it might be a B but be careful‼️. The Randkluft itself can also be bad. So for this variant, crampons, a partner and a short rope are advantageous. It took me a total of 4 hours and I didn't think I was slow.

Strenuous but worthwhile climb to the summit cross, beautiful view over the surrounding mountains.

Beautiful to walk/run in good weather, when it rains the trails become small streams> slippery> sure-footedness required, walk with poles if possible

My first summit cross 💚

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to build “their” cross on this spot. (...) These crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who conquered death (…). The cross is part of our lives, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people ... visit the crosses, whether as places of silence and taking a breath before God, whether as places of community gathering, prayer and praise of God. (Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig in: “Crosses... Small sacred monuments as signs of popular piety”)

The summit cross on Rittisberg offers a wonderful panoramic view of the surrounding mountains 👍🇦🇹

...beautiful panoramic mountain with a great view 👀
