You have to climb over seven peaks: The Innsbruck via ferrata is long and challenging. But it also rewards you with a panorama that is second to none.
Exposed panoramic via ferrata over seven peaks of the Nordkette almost 2,000 meters above the rooftops of Innsbruck. A popular, long classic that can take a whole day of climbing. The first, longer section with difficulty level C leads from the Hafelekar via the Seegrubenspitze and the Kemacher (2,480 meters, highest point) mainly on the ridge to the "Lange Sattel". The second part is more challenging with difficulty level C/D due to various notches, chimneys and turrets. It stretches from the Östliche Sattelspitze to the Frau-Hitt-Sattel. Descents are possible after both sections.
The Innsbruck fixed rope route leads over seven peaks of the Innsbruck Nordkette, accordingly the panoramic view is magnificent. The via ferrata consists of 2 sections. Section 1 leads from the top station Hafelekar 2269 m over the Seegrubenspitze 2350 m, the three chimney tops (eastern chimney top 2435 m, middle chimney top 2435 m, western chimney top 2445 m) and the Kemacher 2480 m to the Lange Sattel 2258 m. Section 2 runs from the Lange Sattel over the Western saddle top 2339 m to Frau Hitt or Frau Hitt saddle 2200 m. The first part with of an original suspension bridge runs mainly on the ridge, the second part is somewhat more demanding and leads over many rock towers, embrasures and steep wall passages. The entire via ferrata has a length of about 3.5 km and offers an incredible view of the glaciated mountains of the main Alpine ridge and the Inn valley.
