    Tips

    Mountaineering

    The Walsersteig (difficulty B/C) is a very well-secured, beginner-friendly via ferrata with varied passages, making it ideal for those who want to get started with via ferrata climbing. The route leads over stepped sections, a rope bridge, and ends at the summit with a beautiful panoramic view. A via ferrata set, harness, and helmet, as well as basic knowledge of via ferrata climbing, are required.
