Winteregg Climbing Course
Activity overview
Our guides take you straight up to Winteregg (1'908m) with the Sunnbüel cable car, and you will spend the whole day exploring the different climbing areas. The focus is on learning in a challenging and fun environment. Basic skills include equipment selection, knots and ropework, belaying, movement and climbing techniques. Our guides will ensure safety and set up climbs tailored to the ability of the group.
KISC is committed to enjoying the mountains in the most sustainable way possible. For this reason, we have committed to donate a portion of the fee from every Winteregg Climbing Course participant to Rebolting, a grass-roots organisation that supports sustainable renovation of fixed climbing equipment using the best material.
