Attention! There is an increased risk of slipping on the ascents and descents due to snow fields! Walk at your own risk! The classic on the Steinplatte Waidring was rehabilitated in June 2023 and is a treat for via ferrata fans! The via ferrata "s'Schuastagangl" (C/D) offers wonderful panoramic views, crisp ascents and unforgettable mountain moments. The varied tour leads through steep rock faces and slippery passages up to the summit of the Waidringer Steinplatte (1,848m). Strength for steeper ascents and courage for ladder passages and the "Knieschloderer" variant with airy steps and a rope bridge are required!

Via ferrata s'Schuastagangl Steinplatte

Attention! There is an increased risk of slipping on the ascents and descents due to snow fields! Walk at your own risk! The classic on the Steinplatte Waidring was rehabilitated in June 2023 and is a treat for via ferrata fans! The via ferrata "s'Schuastagangl" (C/D) offers wonderful panoramic views, crisp ascents and unforgettable mountain moments. The varied tour leads through steep rock faces and slippery passages up to the summit of the Waidringer Steinplatte (1,848m). Strength for steeper ascents and courage for ladder passages and the "Knieschloderer" variant with airy steps and a rope bridge are required!

This stage takes hikers to the small town of Kufstein located on the banks of the Inn river – a town which has been celebrated in song and is steeped in history and character. Walkers make their way through the lush and verdant beauty of a pasture paradise with cosy huts and mountain restaurants before stopping for a rest at the Brentenjochhütte hut (delicious “Kiachl” are served every Saturday). With so many sights to marvel at, don't forget to keep an eye out for the nearly one thousand species of flowering plants native to the Kaiser Mountains.
