    For years the rockfall area of the Zwerchwand in Bad Goisern near Hütteneckalm was asleep like Sleeping Beauty. In 2004 Andreas Scheutz and Voika Höpfl came and started to establish multi-pitch routes in the 100m high wall with surprisingly excellent rock. Over the years more and more climbs emerged that now attract alpinists from far away regions.

    Author’s recommendation

    With a mountain bike, you can legally shorten the approach (especially the descent) to the rockfall area significantly!

    Roadbook

    From the parking lot at the Berghof, follow the signs Rossmoosalm - Hütteneckalm first on a forest road, soon after on a gravel road. At Rossmoosalm, you meet the forest road again, which you follow to the right. At an incline, it narrows to a path, which we now use until its end at the rockfall area. Descending briefly on a path, you reach a cairn where you leave the hiking trail to the left and ascend over block terrain (cairns) to the foot of the wall. Over a short ramp, go right onto a small plateau and then down a few meters to the start (route name posted).

    Route course: see photo and topo

    Descent: rappel 4x25m from the exit. The rappel stations are not the same as those of Vergissmeinnicht (see topo).

    Variant - foot descent: from the exit, go through the forest along the right of the edge until small red dots indicate the descent. Down moderately steep terrain (also fixed rope) to the meadows at Hütteneckalm.
