Route description

The Lachenspitze North Face via ferrata is a via ferrata that is considerably heavier than the Hindelanger or Mindelheim via ferrata. Safe standing and a good arm strength as well as absolute freedom from vertigo are necessary to be able to enjoy the climb. The tour offers wonderful views and is very well insured - with enough strength and condition a dream tour!
Complete via ferrata equipment and helmet are obligatory.
The descent takes place southwards on the normal route for about 30-50 minutes to the Landsberger Hut, which is happy to provide culinary delights!
