Silbergeier is one of the most difficult multilength climbing routes in the world. This 200 meters long amazing limestone line leads on the left side of Kirchlispitz in Rätikon Mountains in Switzerland. First person to overcome and climb this route was Beat Kammerlander who set the line with anchors in 1993 (8b+, 7c+, 8a+, 7a+, 8b+, 7c+/8a ). The route is demanding not only physically but also mental load is comparable to most of his routes. Ondra Beneš from HUDYteam and Rocempire team succeeded to overcome this route after 5 days of practicing. He did it in 5 hours without a single fall. The whole process is described in the following interview which was done after his return.
