The North-East ridge of Patteriol (3056m) in St. Anton am Arlberg is an epic climb of 25 pitches with a max. difficulty of just IV+ (almost unbelievable when you see the ridge from afar). We climbed 16 of the first 17 pitches (up to grade III) without rope, otherwise this tour would have taken us way too long. The last 8 pitches are definitely real exposed climbing - loved the combination of a cool flowy ridge climb and some multi-pitching in great rock at the end. For the 15km approach I would for sure recommend E-Bikes. A really scenic remote climbing route on an impressive mountain - full recommendation!
