Peilstein Summit Cross

Highlight • Summit

It takes a bit of scrambling to get to this view ... but it absolutely pays off! The arnstein needle and the view from up there are the reward for the effort! It's a bit of an adventure to find it at all. 😊

January 2, 2022,Peilstein, Ruine Arnstein, Arnsteinhöhle
A nice tour in the Triestingtal, the rock formation of the Peilstein is impressive and the cave under the ruin is quite large and you can go into it a long way (stooped). There isn't that much left of the ruin, but it's nice to walk around in it.
At the end it would be possible to go on to …

small round from Maria Reisenmarkt over Holzschlag and along the Peilsteinwand below. Up the short 'red' via ferrata at the very end of the wall... up to the Peilsteinhaus and down over the ruins of Agstein.

The round had long been planned for the 10th company hiking day - but had to take a 2-year break due to the situation. I dutifully walked the round 14 days before in a hurry. I'm curious - so far the response has been very positive :)

There are few pictures because I don't put "strange" people on the internet.

Today was a very nice windless day. Only a few remains of the wall are left of the Arnstein ruins.
A must: a detour to the 13 meter high Arnstein Needle, an impressive rock formation from which you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view. The Arnstein caves are also worth a visit.
We went on to the Peilsteinhaus, which was …

The last part of the return route I walked across the meadow. Attention: ⚠️ Private property, passage prohibited. I didn't want to go back, my phone had almost no battery left, I lost my cable from the power bank, it was already too late that I was wandering around there 🙈

🍁Today was a wonderful golden autumn day🥰

With around 1,000 climbing routes, the Peilstein is the most popular climbing garden in Vienna. Wall heights of up to 120 meters and towers in front also offer worthwhile multi-pitch routes. The route combination “Path of the First Climbers” on the Cimone and Vegetariansteig on the wall of the same name is one …
