Rock tours in the II. and III. degree

<p><span style="text-align: justify;">Rock contact, easy climbing, exposed terrain and independent orientation without constant waymarking - for those for whom these characteristics are part of an eventful mountain route, the Rother Selection volume "Felstouren im II. und III. Grad" offers a selection of fantastic routes. The climbing tours lead into easy rock, they are challenging and convey an original and unmistakable mountaineering experience.</span><br style="text-align: justify;"><br style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;">The routes often lead over impressive ridges and flanks, i.e. over logical lines, to impressive and beautifully shaped peaks such as the Schönfeldspitze, the Ehrwalder Sonnenspitze, the Geiselstein or the Gimpel. Classics such as the Jubiläumsgrat or the Kleine Waxenstein as well as many new discoveries and rediscoveries have also found their place.</span><br style="text-align: justify;"><br style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;">This volume presents a total of 46 varied routes on easy rock, many of them forgotten, lonely mountain routes. The selection of tour destinations ranges from the Tennengebirge behind Salzburg in the east to the Allgäu Alps in the vest. The spectrum ranges from rather short tours in the pre-alpine ambience around Spitzingsee and Tegernsee to very long undertakings in the Wetterstein, the Karwendel and the wild Lechtal Alps.</span><br style="text-align: justify;"><br style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Each route has an exact difficulty rating, detailed directions, a GPS-based altitude profile and a map section with the route marked. Many routes also have photos of the route. Thanks to GPS tracks, which can be downloaded from the Bergverlag Rother website, orientation is made even easier. The mountain-experienced authors also provide many useful tips on tour planning, equipment and particular dangers and the often associated question of "belaying - yes or no?"</span><br style="text-align: justify;"><br style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;">The "Rock tours in grade II and III" also fills a gap in the alpine bookshelf. Because they are too difficult for typical hiking guides and too easy for climbing guides - anyone looking for climbing tours on easy rock has had to rely heavily on verbal recommendations.</span><br></p>
