Crag features

Viewed from a distance the "inclined plane" Ebenalp breaks on its south side in a gray and yellow, partly overhanging wall. This is about 1.5 km long, 70 m high and offers for avid climbers more than 150 climbing routes with 1 to 3 pitches. The rock quality is variable, ranging from very good and inspiring compact limestone to splintery. The climbing is often technically on small edges, handles and holes.

The climb can be quite athletic in the higher difficulties and require strength endurance. Intermediate and experienced climbers may select among a large number of beautiful routes. There are no routes up to 5th grade UIAA.

Best time to climb: spring, autumn and winter foehn days.

The routes established since 1990 are equipped with solid, for the most part stainless 10 mm anchors and platter, with belays for rappelling. Few routes have glued Spit. The protection is generally good to very good.

Route listing according Plaisir Ost 2015, so the harder climbs (7a upwards) are not included.

Approach notes

It's possible to hike up from the parking lot at Erstböhl in 50-120 minutes. Follow the hiking trail to the Ebenalp and Äscher hut.

Alternatively from Wasserauen take the cable way up to the Ebenalp and follow the hiking trail in direction Schäfler. At the first crossing head south down to the crag.

Restricted Access

Attention: Every route starts above a very popular hiking trail. Therefore it is an absolute must to avoid rockfall! Additionally climbing in the sector 'Gasthauswand' is not allowed on weekends and public holidays.
