Larix Ferrata & Alpin Trail (Ferrata already open)
The via Ferrata "Larix" (Latin for larch), at the foot of the Kurzrasbach waterfall, runs over several rope bridges, two sky ladders, a rope slide and partly challenging climbing passages. In the first part, the via ferrata leads over and along a small stream and offers plenty of action, interrupted by short walking passages. In the upper part, from the Rotkofelsee, the ferrata disperses and offers three short and rather flat climbing passages. A successful mix of mountain hike and enjoyable action ferrata, which particularly delights beginners and families with teenagers who like to climb.
Suggestion: The "Alpin Trail" mountain hiking trail (marked with red crosses) runs parallel to the via ferrata. This allows for families to start together, some via the action-packed ferrata and others via the hiking trail. Both experienced hikers and sporty climbers will get their money's worth on this via ferrata in the Italian Alps.
