Lukas Mayerhofer continues to push boundaries in sport climbing with his latest achievement: the first ascent of Anam Cara Low (8C) in Silvretta, which integrates four additional hand moves into the existing Anam Cara (8B+).

Regarding the difficulty added by the new low start and your efforts, Mayerhofer explains, “I would say around 7C or 7C+, it’s not super hard but it adds quite a bit.” Reflecting on his journey to complete this project, Mayerhofer recalls, “I actually attempted the original start back in 2020 and soon discovered the lower moves, but lacked the strength at that time. It remained on my mind for years, attempting it sporadically without success. This year, with a renewed mindset, I managed to complete it in just three sessions.”

Mayerhofer’s dedication and perseverance in refining his climbing technique and overcoming physical challenges highlight his commitment to pushing the limits of the sport. His successful ascent of Anam Cara Low underscores his status as a trailblazer in the climbing community.
