    Here the path branches off to the belay point of the via ferrata.

    Translated by Google •

      An alpine via ferrata for sporty climbers. The Gantrisch via ferrata leads over the imposing north flank directly to the striking summit ⛰️💪. Challenging, but with rewarding views!

      Difficulty:
      🔸 C/D (moderate to difficult)
      🔸 Airy, steep & exposed – not for beginners!
      🔸 Very well secured with wire ropes, footrests & clamps


      Approach:
      From the Berghaus Gurnigel or the Obernünenen parking lot, it's about 30-40 minutes to the start at approximately 1,900 m.


      Via ferrata:
      The climb takes about 1-1.5 hours, with exciting traverses, vertical ascents, and spectacular views.
      After the exit, a short summit climb to the Gantrisch (2,175 m).


      Descent:
      Return to the Gantrisch Hut/Gurnigel via the normal hiking trail.


      Equipment:
      ▪️ Via Ferrata Set 🧷
      ▪️ Helmet ⛑️
      ▪️ Harness, Gloves
      ▪️ Sturdy Mountain Boots 🥾
      ▪️ Water & Food 💧🥪
