Kevin Heiniger gets an inspection of the historical route Ravage (8b + / 8c)

ClimbingNews Switzerland

The Bernese Kevin Heiniger manages the ascent of the route Ravage in Chuenisberg.

"It's a historic line that was always on my to-do list," writes Kevin of Ravage. “It's funny that I was able to score points on the route on the national holiday, August 1st,” he continues. The Ravage route was first climbed by Antoine Le Menestrel and was the hardest route in the world with 8b + / 8c in 1986.
