Outside this window: Eidetind (2) · Gandalf (2) · Bilbao (1) · Kastlwand (1)Markers sit at the climbing area rather than the wall, accurate to about a kilometre. Where crags fall too close together they have been nudged apart; the hairline points back to the real position.

This view groups the routes by country — individual crags would be far too small to read a count inside. Each marker sits at the centre of gravity of that country’s routes rather than the middle of the country.

Pitches, length, style and rating are filled in on only a small share of the reports, so there are no totals for them here — they would simply be wrong.
