Great, easy climb! Via ferrata equipment is not really necessary unless you are a little unsure, but I would recommend rockfall helmets.

The summit of the Scheffauer on the south side you reach first on a gravel slope, then on several via ferrata passages (difficulty A / B), which are well insured in the upper section with wire ropes.

If you climb up to the Steiner Hochalm, it's always worth looking back. On the descent, you pause every now and then to enjoy the view.

October 6, 2022,herbstliche Runde auf die Scheffauer Spitze

Today I was able to use the perfect conditions for a long-planned tour: weekday, vacation, sun, clear view, pleasant temperature, no wind and no snow. It was still pretty exhausting!

August 13, 2022,Scheffauer Nord-Süd

Today a not too long round, which shouldn't be too boring, with Valentina and her friend Steffi. And so we went from the Hintersteiner See via Walleralm, Kaindlhütte and Widauer Steig from the north to the Scheffauer. Then down south, on the Steiner Hochalm we had a cold drink with harp music and jumped into the lake to cool off. …

October 6, 2022,🇦🇹 Kaiserdurchquerung – 2. Tag: Kaindlhütte – Widauersteig – Scheffauer – Steiner Hochalm – Hochegg - Kaindlhütte

From the Kaindlhütte we climbed to the forbidding northern cliffs of Scheffauer and Zettenkaiser, first through mountain forest and later through the mountain pine belt to a slab-like cliff. There the "serious" part of the tour began, the excellently secured, in my opinion easy via ferrata / Widauersteig. This initially led steeply through gullies and over a few slabs up …
