Via ferratas in the Tyrolean Oberland
Grandiose granite for professionals and beginners
The three-country region of the Tyrolean Oberland with Nauders and the Kaunertal valley impresses with its numerous climbing opportunities. Small but fine granite climbing gardens in the lower levels of difficulty with an alpine ambience are a special feature in Tyrol. In addition to beginners, families in particular enjoy climbing here. But don't worry - professionals won't miss out either. Exciting sport climbing routes and via ferratas, multi-pitch tours, ice climbing, 1 forest rope park and 4 family-friendly climbing gardens make the region in the Tyrolean Oberland a special vacation experience.
Via ferrata tips
Via ferrata enthusiasts get their money's worth in the Tyrolean Oberland. You can put your skills to the test on the following 3 via ferratas:
- Anton Renk via ferrata - Fendels
A fast-paced via ferrata that should only be attempted by professionals. There are no emergency exits or ways around particularly difficult sections here. The north-facing, well-secured climb is in the D/E difficulty range and is extremely challenging due to its length and 2 strenuous overhangs. It takes around 3 hours to reach the start from Fendels and 2 hours by lift. - Tirolerweg Nauders
The Tirolerweg in Nauders offers beautiful climbing on primary rock. The D grade climb is north-facing, only faintly marked in places and requires a certain amount of concentration. There are wonderful views down to Lake Reschen and as far as the Ortler. You shouldn't take too much time, as the last gondola leaves for the valley at 4 pm. - "Holderli Seppl" via ferrata - Kaunertal, Fernergries
The "Holderli Seppl" via ferrata is the perfect starting point for via ferrata beginners or families with children. Against the imposing backdrop of the Fernergries, the B/C difficulty level via ferrata winds its way upwards. The short 10-minute approach is another plus.
