Now it's really nice, unfortunately, many are very clumsy and always trigger stones in the via ferrata, so a helmet would not be bad, which protects just the head and …

June 3, 2022,Von Durchholzen zur Pyramidenspitze

A very nice tour from Durchholzen. Via the Winkelalm (her last opportunity to fill up with water at a fountain) it is a long and sometimes very strenuous hike over hill and dale.

July 29, 2026,AT/Tirol - Kaiseraufstieg/Winkelkar Bergtour (Pyramidenspitze 1.997m)

A demanding mountain hike with unsecured climbing passages (up to max. I) and light to moderately difficult via ferrata passages (up to max. B at the summit area, otherwise A). The ascent through the Winkelkar and over the via ferrata is prone to rockfall. Sure-footedness and a head for heights are absolutely essential.

The alpine salamanders liked the humidity. We've seen over a dozen of the rare animals. Because of the low temperature, they didn't run away from …
