Gebhardsberg Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

A few looped castle walls have defied the time and from some sides you can still get an approximate impression of the complex. Today it is more of a gastronomic spot on the Känzele hike.

Nice little climbing after work - for me quite good to practice in the C area. I don't need more yet. Andi how about it?

Too bad, the height information is unfortunately not displayed and calculated correctly,
Today was my training day.

Ascent via the difficult route. Descent via the medium route and then up the difficult route again. This way you can extend the climbing fun.
