 | Knot 1 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Reef Knot
5. 04. 2022 13:58:05
The reef knot is the ideal joining knot for connecting ropes and cordelettes of similar diameter. As a reef knot loop (from 1:23) it serves as tie-in and brake knot on high tours. For rappelling (3:01) we use the reef knot to join the two rope ends.... |
 | Knot 2 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Figure Eight Knot
5. 04. 2022 13:58:25
The figure eight knot is easy to tie and easily verifiable due to its unmistakable knot pattern. Whether as an end knot for rappelling (1:12), as a tie-in knot for climbing (1:37) or as a tie-in point in the form of a figure-eight loop on high tours (3:37) the... |
 | Knot 3 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Bowline
5. 04. 2022 13:58:45

 | Knot 5 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Prusik Knot
5. 04. 2022 13:59:20
The prusik knot is our number one brake knot in mountaineering. In hitched form using a short prusik (0:37) we encounter it during rappelling, for classic "prusiking up" (1:38) we need two longer cordelettes instead. The girth-hitched prusik (3:39) is the central knot in crevasse rescue using the lo... |
 | Knot 6 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Sling Friction Knot
5. 04. 2022 13:59:37

 | Knot 7 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Munter Hitch (HMS)
5. 04. 2022 14:00:12
We need the Munter hitch to create the eponymous Munter belay (HMS). We should be able to make it in the mountains with the right hand (1:40) as well as with the left hand (2:21). Typical areas of application (2:50) and error-free tying you learn in this video tutorial.... |
 | Knot 8 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Clove Hitch
5. 04. 2022 14:00:49
We use the clove hitch almost exclusively for creating self-belay. The simplest variant (0:40) is overlapping two rope loops. For climbing, however, it is advisable that the knot can also be tied one-handed with the right hand (1:37) and with the left hand (2:33).... |
 | Knot 9 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Fisherman's Knot
5. 04. 2022 14:01:12
The fisherman's knot offers a very simple yet reliable rope connection. Common applications are securing the via ferrata set to the climbing harness (1:17) or attaching the self-belay during rappelling (2:37). The fisherman's knot can also be made when threading or passing through is not possible (4... |
 | Knot 10 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Toggle Knot
5. 04. 2022 14:01:35
The simple toggle knot (0:46) is relatively rarely used in mountaineering, for example when wanting to tie off rope taken in loops. The double toggle knot (2:30) is used for fixed rope connections, e.g. when setting up an abseil stance.... |
 | Knot 11 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Butterfly Knot
5. 04. 2022 14:01:53
The butterfly knot is used in mountaineering almost exclusively as a brake knot in small glacier teams of 2 or 3 people. It can be made classically threaded (0:43) or laid over the back of the hand (2:15).... |
 | Knot 12 - 12 Knots for the Mountains - Weaver's Knot
5. 04. 2022 14:02:14
