Description

The scenic Jubiläumssteig is a very exposed, difficult mountain trail, which is largely, but not continuously, secured with steel ropes and a few footholds and two ladders - ideal for via ferrata beginners.

From the hiking starting point at the Wochenbrunner Alm mountain hut, there are two options for the approach:

  • via trail/path 825 towards the Gruttenhütte mountain hut

  • via the Gaudeamushütte mountain hut and the Klammlweg trail (812/822 and 813/824) towards the Gruttenhütte


Approach time: approx. 1.75 hours

To the east of the Gruttenhütte, follow the sign “Ellmauer Tor über Jubiläumssteig” until you reach the entrance to the Jubiläumssteig trail.

First you go downhill over...
