Hey Rich,

what on earth are you doing in Achberg? Not the biggest city really ;-)

As for the climbing, there's definitely the Rätikon not far away with many classics

Not sure about guides but there are several that cover that range - usually in German though and maybe not worth buying if only for one day ... for details see the page above.

The little village of Bürs in Austria offers great sport climbing on overhanging conglomerate rock if the weather is bad - most parts are rain proof

I'll be back from Korea on 1st October so if you want you can drop me an email and maybe we can catch up / go climbing? I live only an hour or so away in Konstanz
