Verpeilspitze (3425 m) Nordgrat, Kaunertal



0 comments

route: Verpeilalm (1802 m) - Verpeiljoch - Verpeilspitze (3425 m) via North Ridge (V) - Madatschjoch - Verpeilalm


 

"...the most generous enterprise in the Kaunertal ..." (climbers-paradise.com) - amazing views but a little tedious because super-long climb!

It took us about two hours to get to the Verpeiljoch, and we spend about nine hours on the ridge. We belayed most sections, although we started off short-roping and also short-roped easier sections in between.
The rock is solid and the route beautiful: straight on the ridge and straight over every gendarme! The route has been bolted by Florian Schranz. You find detailed information about this climb on his website:  http://www.eisalpin.at.

From the summit we descended southwards and headed back to the Verpeilalm via Madatschjoch.
