His real passion, however, was mountaineering, where he devoted himself to rock climbing at a young age. The exact cause of his death on the Ödsteinkante, in which his partner Michael Kofler also died on August 17, 1919, remains unclear. Gustav Jahn is buried at Mountaineer Cemetery in Johnsbach, in the Gesäuse of the Ennstal Mountains.
