Climbing in Oman Kletterführer - englisch

<p>Hansjörg Auer war dort, Albert Precht schon vor Jahren, Stefan Glowacz neulich, mit Chris Sharma. Was ziehen wir daraus als Fazit: Der Oman ist wohl eine Kletterreise wert. Und zwar nicht nur für Highender, sondern genau so für Otto Normalkletterer. Sportklettern, Mehrseillängenrouten mit Alpenniveau, DWS und Bouldern in einer anderen Kultur und einer faszinierenden Landschaft. Klettern mit dem Flair von tausendundeiner Nacht.</p> <p>With 120.000 square miles, Oman is the size of Great Britain and Ireland combined. But it has only four million inhabitants. The landscape in the western part is dominated by the desert. But if you’re expecting monotonous sand deserts you’re wrong. Most parts of the country are dominated by rugged mountain ranges. The Al Hajar Mountains are in the northern part of the country. Jebel Shams is the highest peak with 2.998 meters above sea level. The Dhofar Mountains dominate the southern part of Oman. Jebal Samhan with 1.800 m is the highest peak in this area.</p> <p>Jakob Oberhauser knows all the great climbing destinations in Oman. Many of them are published for the first time in this book. Here you can find the whole range from long multi pitch routes to single pitch sport climbs and deep water soloing. The book has 180 pages and 141 topo maps. It covers 26 areas and 104 sectors. Brilliant photos tempt the reader to visit this exotic climbing destination on the tip of the Arabian peninsula.</p> <ul>Beschriebene Gebiete: <li> Jabal Misht </li> <li> Jabal Kawr </li> <li> Jabal Ghul </li> <li> Jabal Mishfah </li> <li> Jabal M‘Saw </li> <li> Wadi Nakhar </li> <li> Jabal Fokha </li> <li> Jabal Misfat Al Abriyeen </li> <li> Wadi Tanuf </li> <li> Nizwa Towers </li> <li> Wadi Shur </li> <li> Wadi Muaydin </li> <li> Jabal Nakhus </li> <li> Wadi Bani Awf </li> <li> Wadi Mistal </li> <li> Kubrah Canyon </li> <li> Bandar Jissah </li> <li> Wadi Mayh </li> <li> Wadi Daykah </li> <li> Wadi Suwayh </li> <li> Umq </li> <li> Umq Bir </li> <li> Wadi Fins </li> <li> Wadi Shab </li> <li> Wadi Tiwi </li> <li> Wadi Bani Khalid </li> <li> Dhofar </li> </ul> <p>Jakob Oberhauser | Panico Alpinverlag | 1.
