Kletter- & Boulderführer Maltatal

Since the first edition of the climbing guidebook in 2015, the Malta Valley has turned from a former insider tip into a real top spot. And not without reason: it offers a rich selection of first-class climbing and bouldering opportunities. The new, completely revised 2nd edition is a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to this wonderful valley with its fantastic destinations.
Whether you're wriggling on Christoph Rauch's boulder test piece "The Source" (Fb 8b+) in the romantic Valley of the Kings, letting the "White Winds" (6c) blow around your ears on the Yellow Secret or sniffing the high alpine air on the Plaisir Ridge of the Langkarscheid (IV+): there's something for almost everyone in the Valley of Tumbling Waters.
Families and multipitch beginners will enjoy the pleasure routes of the Seenplatten (max. V+) and the Damm High Arena, among others. Child-friendly, flat meadows at the entrance and a via ferrata for beginners (A/B) offer potential for the whole climbing family.
Three additional areas at the gates of the Malta Valley add a whole new dimension to the climbing guide: The Breitwand with its multi-pitch routes and the Jungfernsprung - Seaclimbs directly above the water - at Lake Millstätter See form a gentle contrast to the inner Alpine Malta Valley. And with the Danielsberg near Kolbnitz, another Malta break day can be filled if necessary.
Gerhard Schaar has compiled all the relevant information for vertical adventures in the Valley of Tumbling Waters in the sections Bouldering, Sport Climbing & Alpine Climbing. On 336 pages (100 new pages!) he presents over 500 sport climbing pitches on 23 massifs, about 300 bouldering problems as well as all techno and alpine routes worth mentioning.

The guide comes with a download code for a free application for iOS and Android. You get all the Maltatal topos as an app for your smartphone for free. The topos are currently being prepared for the app and we therefore ask for a little patience. If you have any questions about the Maltatal climbing app, please contact the Vertical-Life team directly.
