The area has around 35 climbing routes. The levels of difficulty are between 3 and 8 according to the UIAA rating, with a focus on 5 and 6.

The length of the routes is between 12 and 18 meters, the protection is consistently good to very good with pitons.

The routes were set up between 2010 and 2012 by the Gummersbach section of the Alpine Club, which still looks after and maintains the area today.

The climbing crag can be used all year round, access is free for everyone, but please leave the forest before sunset and do not enter the protected rock faces.

Access: The easiest way is to use the parking lot at the junction of the road "In der Bunne" directly on the Lister and from there always walk to the right of the stream past the sewage treatment plant into the forest. After passing two vacation cottages, it takes about 10-15 minutes to reach the crag, which is located on the right-hand side of a meadow.

Important rules: No fires, no smoking, no camping.

Directions: Take the A45 coming from Dortmund and exit at Meinerzhagen (AS 16), then head towards Attendorn and after Breddershaus turn right towards Hunswinkel.

Drive through Windebruch and park in a small bay on the right approx. 600 m after leaving the village. Access: Opposite the parking lot, a forest path (road name "In der Bunne") leads first to a sewage treatment plant, then in a slight left-right loop between some weekend cottages. Follow the forest path straight ahead (approx. 25 min walk - always keep to the right of the stream), then the quarry appears on the right. Access time: 25 minutes
