Great via ferrata on the Dachstein Krippenstein with magnificent views of the Hallstatt Glacier.
Ferrata with a view
The Schöberl is practically the climbing practice and training mountain of the nearby Simonyhütte. There are also three very short via ferratas on this rocky mountain. The "Via Steinbock" runs through the east face of the Schöberl. From the start, you first ascend a ramp (A to B), continue over slabs (B/C to C) followed by another ramp (A to B). Then cross to the right and continue over rock steps, becoming increasingly easier, to the summit (B/C, finally A).
On the way, you have a beautiful view of the Hallstätter Glacier. From the summit, you can either descend via the Migma via ferrata (A/B) or the more difficult Moni via ferrata (B/C and 1+).
You can reach the Simonyhütte and the neighbouring Schöberl in approx. 3 hours from the mountain station of the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car.
Experience a 360° panoramic tour through Bad Goisern on Lake Hallstatt...
