Important Information

Caution: The children's via ferrata features a flying fox. This should only be used under expert supervision – a brakeman is required, otherwise you will crash into the tree below with great force.

Via ferrata equipment is absolutely necessary!

Tour description

The Kali via ferrata is the ideal entry point for children from the age of 7 to make their first attempts on the rock. It reaches a maximum difficulty of B on the easiest variant, although short and steep variants up to C/D are also possible on the so-called "Gemsenturm". However, these are not mandatory and can be easily bypassed.

To be safe on the way and to enjoy every moment in the mountains is the motto.

Wednesday: Via ferrata beginners course "Kids climbing on the Sattelberg" for children (from 7 years). You can find more information under Schladming - Dachstein.
