The descent from the Alpspitze may be a bit tricky at the beginning, since inexperienced people are lacking safety options here. You work your way down the gravel bed. Later it goes along rocks that offer firm tread and safeguards.

For us it was the first via ferrata in the Garmisch area, which we really enjoyed, which is easy to do, but should not be underestimated. Via ferrata equipment and sure-footedness are absolutely required.

An absolute highlight as a descent variant of the Alpspitz ferrata - secured with wire ropes at all difficult points.
