    The gate to the Eibgrad, whoever fits through there, also makes the grade

      Here it goes through a narrow rock breakthrough, there are always crisp passages to overcome. Difficult passages can usually be avoided, however, surefootedness and sturdy shoes are important for the "full body workout".

        The Eibgrat is an elongated ridge of rocks with a via ferrata stretching some 1.5 km. Here is the eastern entrance to the Eibgrat with the small rock gate at the beginning of the beautiful Kraxelei. On the way you have enough time to breathe and admire the bizarre rocks.
