Airy ridge crossing of the Bosruck
Many have driven through the Bosruck, but only very few have climbed to its summit. Far away from the noise of the motorway, this border mountain offers not only a breezy adventure but also breathtaking views of the Gesäuse and Totes Gebirge.
**How difficult is it?**
You can expect mostly A/B sections, with a few C-points, but also climbing passages on rock with difficulty grade I. Because of the exposed, partly unsecured sections, good surefootedness is a basic requirement! Especially after rain or in fog, the grassy craggy sections are particularly slippery! We do not recommend walking on the trail when it is wet.

Here the signs to the Wildfrauenklettersteig lead the way. A short detour down to the left to the portal of the Wildfrauenhöhle is worthwhile. From a prominent saddle, the rope belays begin. Attention - the course of the ridge is not continuously secured. Therefore, great caution is advised, especially at the breaks!
