Switzerland - Jura

A couple of small overhanging buttresses with a few short but interesting routes. Osterloch faces west. The Überhang stays dry in the rain, and gets the sun until 1pm. 

Situated on the top of the hills above the Aare valley, Bettlerküche is in a perfect position to enjoy the views of the Swiss plain. Admittedly the crag itself is hidden in the trees, which provide welcome shade in the summer, but let a bit of warmth through when the leaves have dropped. The climbing here has been recently re bolted, giving some generally hard, but well protected routes. There is variety too, from the slabs on the lower buttress, to the steep overhanging walls on the upper section, with a few cracks and walls in between. Well worth a visit.

A one route crag, Kingway finds a solid way up an otherwise chossy crag. Gets the sun in the afternoon. 

Excellent routes up to 40m in length. Mostly good rock, and positive holds. The crag is protected from the sun by the trees in summer, but in contrast some parts get the sun in the winter. The left hand side of Schattenberg has generally shorter and easier routes. The middle has the hardest, and the right hand section the longest.

An impressive crag set in a pretty location.
