    Tips

    Exciting Kraxelei: This path on the ridge between Breitenberg and Heubatspitze is often described as a via ferrata. Large parts are insured with a steel cable, sometimes there are also steps. A ladder is attached to a steep section. Hikers do not need special via ferrata equipment here. Surefootedness and a head for heights are a must!

    Climbing aficionados only use the rock and leave out the steep rope.

      A via ferrata set can't hurt. You don't absolutely need it, but it's nice to have it in your backpack... 😉
