Climbing mount

Interesting via ferrata on the "local mountain" of Bad Goisern on Lake Hallstatt.

Dream via ferrata to the summit of the Predigstuhl

The via ferrata offers original climbing sections, especially in the upper section, such as a climb through and the ridge. To extend the tour a little, we recommend adding the Törlwand via ferrata and possibly the Ewige Wand via ferrata

Exact route description:

The steep access wall (C) requires arm strength. Continue left via three sloping ladders (A/B) to a small overhang (C) that leads into a crevice with a crux (ignore the ropes on the right that belong to a high-rope system). Climb this steeply (C) and to a dizzying exposed ridge (B/C). Then via the last belays to the summit.

In emergencies, call mountain rescue on 140!
