Tour description
A good opportunity to make the first climbing moves in the new summer season has recently been offered by a via ferrata in Brandnertal. Only a few steps away from the town center of Brand and the Brandnertal climbing park, it leads 80 meters and 60 vertical meters up a rock slab. The ascent from the Kellenegg goods path takes just under 15 minutes: that's almost luxury for via ferrata climbers.
From the Brandnertal climbing park, the trail leads out of the valley for a few minutes, then a hiking trail branches off to the southeast. The entrance is easy to find and the climbing fun can begin.
The most difficult passage falls into category C and holds a slight overhang. The majority of the via ferrata is in difficulty B and can be easily mastered in 40 minutes. Experienced climbers will be through relatively quickly, but pausing to enjoy the view is definitely worth it now and then. The steps are placed at distances that are easy to manage. The via ferrata is also easily doable for beginners who already have a bit of experience in via ferrata climbing and are used to the altitude. The appropriate equipment can be rented at the Brandnertal climbing park.
