Directly at the edge of Waischenfeld, this west face offers some of the best vertical climbing in the area. Footwork and finger strength is paramount for the small crimpers and pockets. There isn't a real warmup route around, so maybe stop by another crag before walking here if necessary. The easiest route, "Halluzination" is actually a quite challenging, but at the same time rewarding slab. The highlight of the main wall is "Break Free", but all the routes are worth trying.

Access
In Waischenfeld, cross the Wiesent and turn south towards Zeubach. After the last houses, you can see the crag on your left. Shortly afterwards, there is a turnoff on the right with a parking lot (the sign for parking is hard to see). Park there and walk back the 50 meters to the crag.
