The via ferrata "Wildkar"  was built by none less then Toni Rosifka, the owner of the Simony hut. The route itself proceeds directly over the pillar of the "vordere Niederes Kreuz" and is a wonderful finish of all the via ferratas surrounding the Simony hut.



High-alpine via ferrata in the Dachstein mountains


After a rather easy start through a shallow gully (B), the climb quickly becomes more difficult (C). After a short easy section (A/B), the key section is reached, an upswing with few steps (first C/D, then D). Easier terrain (B) leads to an overhang (C/D). This is followed by the key section of the Wildkar via ferrata, the pillar (C/D) secured with numerous pins. After this, the terrain recedes and becomes much easier (first C, then B and A/B). This is followed by a short challenging section (D) before the difficulties are finally over. The rest of the route mostly runs directly along the ridge and is only partially insured (A to B).

In emergencies, call the mountain rescue service on 140
