Wonderful staircase with two parts that has been converted into a real via ferrata in recent years. The lower part consists mainly of step brackets that pull up on small walls and around corners. The upper part attracts with a classic, large chimney (rustic entrance gap), which ends in the upper part over rocky ridges. You need a via ferrata set as well as sturdy shoes, via ferrata or cycling gloves for the ladders, brackets and steel ropes.

This is actually just a via ferrata and should only be attempted by experienced hikers and climbing enthusiasts. Via ferrata sets with harness and helmet are actually to be put on. And please think of the right equipment, especially the right shoes. Flip-flops or sneakers are out of place here. To climb you need both hands and not a beer bottle in hand. Garbage is also taken along please. It is a national park and the national park guard controls and is not afraid of punishment. And remember, please only commit on the ascent.
