__ traverse; method for crossing between two points using rope (8)

I believe the answer is:

tyrolean

(Other definitions for tyrolean that I've seen before include "could come from Innsbruck" , "Austrian" , "Native of picturesque mountainous region of western Austria" , "European" , "Residing in Innsbruck" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
