Climbing in "Messner"land

On our one free afternoon, a dutch, a german, an austrian, and an american travelled down the valley to Naturns to another local climbing spot. The area is located just a short hike below Reinhold Messner's castle. We felt almost obligated to climb a nice two-pitch route suitably named Messner Schneider.

We also found the local climber's playground, which must be a busy place on rainy days. The town near the climbing area is much more reminiscent of what one would expect to see in Northern Italy.
