Wegscheid car park, Scheffau (subject to charge)

This variety-rich layback route extends on mostly compact, rather flat rock, interspersed with short Schrofen passages and walking terrain.  

Admittedly, everything on the Blue Moon climbing tour revolves around the 5th pitch. It’s readily visible on the approach even without a telescope, though it’s as if this dihedral is from another galaxy! At the very least, its like something out of a picture book, stretching more than one and a quarter pitch lengths. While climbing, you might find yourself thinking: It's working! The plan! And the moon! But soon you’ll be doing your best Piaz impression, taking your shoulders to the limit while using the layback climbing technique! All the while you’ll be in awe of the climbing lines Mother Earth can create. Small wonder that this Blue Moon tour is so popular! In case the lead climber falls, the safety equipment is good, but not excellent. But what about the Blue Moon’s other eleven and three-quarter pitches? At the beginning, there is some searching for the right line. But towards the top, things really take off quickly. Between tufts of grass, there is some really fine and versatile limestone rock. It’s just how you’d imagine the perfect moon landing!

Two very demanding, fantastic lookout peaks on the Wilder Kaiser, which are not to be underestimated.

Enjoy wonderful rock face climbing in prime rock. The tour is secured throughout with bolts but there are still some tricky passages. We advise the use of mobile safety equipment. The tour finishes on the grassy plateau area near the entry point to HaZo Fantastica climb.
