Via ferrata Südsporn auf die Köllenspitze

Klettersteig Köllenspitze

Route description

Very beautiful, alpine via ferrata on the south side of the Köllenspitze - the trail has class and could become one of the really big iron trails in the region! Not only the difficulties, which with passages up to difficulty level D are more in the upper range, distinguish this Ferrata. The mix of a longer ascent, great, difficult sport via ferrata and alpine tricky descent makes for the perfect adventure via ferrata day. On the summit you have the rugged peaks of the Alps in the south as well as the beautiful lakes near Neuschwanstein in the north in view. But beware, because of the alpine descent, the climb should only be done by experienced via ferrata climbers at the moment - but perhaps those responsible will take the edge off the descent.

This ferrata is not only characterised by the difficulties, which are more in the upper range with passages up to difficulty level D, but also by its scenic attractions. The difficulties are in the lower part and on the summit wall.

Attention: the descent is alpine ! - Climbs up to 1, partly exposed and brittle. Dangerous in snow and wet conditions (the snow lasts quite long on the north side in spring, information about the conditions at the Gimpelhaus or the Tannheimer Hütte).
Long via ferrata tour which should only be done in stable weather.

Equipment: Helmet, via ferrata set, harness, hiking equipment, gloves for via ferrata, emergency equipment, good shoes
