Mountaineering

1st section of stage 3 of the Burgen Klettersteig called Oberburg. In an emergency, you can leave this section of the stage at 3 points with wet feet through the Lieser or after the 1st section along the Lieser. This section with its D passage should not be underestimated and especially if you have done the other stages before, it can push you to the limits of your strength!

Mountaineering

The via ferrata section does not pose any great challenges for experienced via ferrata climbers. You just have to be lucky not to have too many other climbers in front of you. Inexperienced climbers can also be found there. They therefore need a little longer for the more challenging sections and can sometimes stop.
But the via ferrata definitely offers newcomers the opportunity to try out different levels of difficulty.

Pace yourself if you are a beginner! Possibly don't do all 3 stages. Otherwise, TIP: Start early! I always go at 6, half past 6. Then there are few people around. Afterwards, it quickly gets crowded. This way, you'll be alone on the summit around 10 with your well-deserved summit beer and can enjoy the sunrise along the way. Pure Eifel! 🌄
