Innsbruck Rock Climbing Guidebook

Description

This is a comprehensive guidebook describing the sport climbing around Innsbruck.  It covers an area from Silz in the west, including Telfs, to Innsbruck and Hall in the East, plus south of Innsbruck to Steinach Am Brenner.

The guidebook describes many 1,000’s of sport routes in 67 main climbing areas covering a wide variety of climbing and rock type.  The main rock type of the area is limestone and conglomerate, but there is also Gneiss and granite to be found.  The guidebook mainly covers single pitch sport routes, but there are also plenty of bolted multi-pitch routes and even some bouldering described in the guidebook.

The altitude of the crags also varies from less than 1,000m around Innsbruck to over 2,000m in the surrounding mountains.  This means it is possible to climbing in this area throughout the year especially as the crags face many different orientations to catch the sun or shade as required.

All the routes are shown of colour topos, along with UIAA grades.  For each area there is a brief description of the climbing, a location map and approach information, plus QR codes for the parking areas.  For each crag there is further information regarding altitude, orientation, how good the bolting is, popularity, parking, rock type and walk-in time.  A table shows the total number of routes at each grade.
