…a great challenging via ferrata in 3 stages with difficulties A - D along above the Lieser

This is where real climbers come into their own. But that wasn't part of our route.

Different perspectives on the castles

Here is the entrance to the Manderscheid via ferrata stage 2 here again please do not use the via ferrata in bad weather conditions

A beautiful via ferrata. Experienced climbers can complete all three stages one after the other without any problems. For inexperienced climbers, the third stage in particular can be a challenge.

There are various things on offer here, including guided via ferrata training

In addition to the necessary via ferrata set, a helmet is mandatory due to possible rockfall

The Upper Castle and the Lower Castle rise up in the Lieser valley near Manderscheid. The Upper Castle was once a state castle of the Archbishops of Trier, while the Lower Castle, around 150 years younger, served as the residence of the Lords of Manderscheid, who lived there as representatives of the Counts of Luxembourg.
