Barbara Zangerl from Vorarlberg in Austria was considered to be one of the best boulder climbing woman in the world and she was one of the first women who accomplished climbs in 8b. At the age of 19, a back injury. Would this mean the end of her career? With fervour and ambition, Barbara has begun alpine climbing. With a totally new approach she attempts the hardest alpine routes, such as “End of Silence“ – opened by Thomas Huber, Stefan Glowacz’s „Des Kaisers neue Kleider“ and „Silbergeier“ by Beat Kammerlander. Due to their challenge and their beauty, those three extreme climbing routes are milestones of the alpine climbing sport, also known as the “Alpine Trilogy”. Barbara is the first woman who has succeeded in climbing this trilogy, an achievement which has also earned the deepest respect of the first climbers there.
