This via ferrata is situated close to the Gosau valley. Of medium difficulty and easy access, the via ferrata can be accessed, easily and safely, even when the weather is not so good.

Directly above Lake Gosau, this rock climb allows you to enjoy stunning views of His Majesty - the Dachstein - throughout the whole day.

The brand new via ferrata in Hallstatt is certain to be an exciting challenge for keen rock climbers.

A short but nevertheless very exposed via ferrata, which, on its own, is less interesting. However, this climb can be combined with the original "Leadership Klettersteig"“ to the summit of the Predigstuhl along a marked footpath.

Conquer approximately 1100 metres of climbing and rugged mountain crags up to 400 m in height. This mountain climb is divided into three sections of varying degrees of difficulty.

This via ferrata was established by mountain guides Helmut Putz and Gerhard Gangl, in cooperation with the Obertraun Tourist Authorities, in autumn 1997. It is permanently being maintained, and has a difficulty rating of D to E (on a scale from A to E), and as such is one of the most challenging rock climbs in the entire Alpine world.
