Hockenlochfels

International > Europe > Germany > Schwäbische Alb

Description

Located just south of Bad Urach. Shares a parking area with Baldecknadeln and the Geschlilzter Fels climbing areas as all are extremely closely located with eachother. Climbing is going to be well sheltered as most of the routes in this area are within the trees, making for a comfortable day unless the humidity is up then the lack of a strong breeze will kill a day.

DO NOT TOP OUT, Use the rap bolts to get down and stay on the marked trails.

Route sorting starts at the north/west portion of the climbing area and works to the right around the climbing area from there.

Getting There

From Bad Urach, go south on the B465 towards Munsingen. About 1.7KM from Bad Urach you will see a large parking area on the left side of the road. Park there and then take the right trail up to the climbing area. If you go left you'll go up to the Hockenlochfels/Geschliltzter Fels climbing areas. GPS coordinates are to the parking area.
