Via ferrata s'Schuastagangl Steinplatte

Open

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!
