Description

An easily accessed wall next to S35 and the river Mur. There is a few dozen multi pitch routes and base climbs to find here. All climbs are facing east or southeast. Expect constant noise from the highway, the train and a nearby quarry.

Getting There

The parking lot direktly under the highway is reached when driving north on S35 leaving at exit "Peggau Mitte". From the exit turn right and then take the next right turn in about 200 m. There cross a small bridge over Mur to a power station, turn right again on "Deutschfeistritz" and follow the road until you hit a parking area direktly under the highway (47.21996N, 15.33556E).

Descent

To descend from most route, continue right on the top of "Kugelstein" following a well walked trail (in most locations). The trail steadily desends along the edge of cliff, eventually turning slightly left and crossing a meadow. Shortly afterwards, continue right along an old forrest road. After a minute or so, take the first left split leading again along and down the cliff line. Follow this back to the parking area. (total ~30 minutes, follow the GPX trail for your first time as there are no markings)
