Climbing & via ferrata
Climbing enthusiasts don’t miss out either. Numerous via ferratas will make your heart beat faster.
Schmiedklettersteig
The Schmied via ferrata is a 640 m long via ferrata of medium difficulty. It crosses the wall above the reservoir in Gosau-Hintertal. Due to the two emergency exits and the proximity to the valley, the trail can also be climbed in less safe weather.
Großer Donnerkogel
The motto for the sporting summit victory on the Großer Donnerkogel is to hold on and climb. Here the climbing part becomes a challenge even for experienced climbers. The start to the sporty climbing fun is at the Gablonzerhütte, near the mountain station of the Gosaukammbahn.
Gosausee Klettersteig
The Laserer Alpine via ferrata runs directly over the water of the Vorderen Gosausee. It is a well-secured Plaisir via ferrata with 420 meters of climbing. The tour is very scenic thanks to the constant view of the Dachstein and the proximity to the lake.
“Espresso” Klettersteig
Is a short, fun but very rewarding climb with difficulty D.
Riding
The Lammertal riding estate is just a 15-minute drive away. Riders of all ages and levels of training meet there. Regardless of whether you want to learn to ride, refresh your knowledge or simply leave the stress of everyday life behind you on a long ride – the Reitgut Lammertal is the right address for you!
