With the summit cross already in sight, you have to really push yourself at the end. But then! The reservoir shines below you, and the main Alpine ridge shows its glaciated teeth to the south.
Via ferrata through the north face of the 2,671-meter-high Ballunspitze in Silvapark Galtür. Challenging sections up to C/D at an altitude of 380 meters, emergency exit possible in the first third. Lots of slab climbing, one vertical wall, two overhangs. The steep rock faces can also be mastered by children and young people aged 12 and over who are experienced climbers, provided they are properly secured. From the summit, there are far-reaching views of the Silvretta glaciers, the Kops reservoir and the Rätikon. Caution: You should still have sufficient strength reserves for the steep and demanding descent. Access 30 minutes from the top station of the chairlift.
The Silvapark via ferrata at Ballunspitze is a challenging alpine route rated difficulty D. Beginning in Galtür, the via ferrata ascends through various stages, including a rope segment across the Ballunspitzgrat, leading to the summit at 2,671 metres. The route is technically demanding and requires strong fitness and advanced climbing skills. A major attraction is the breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding Silvretta mountains, particularly rewarding in clear weather.
With the railway station in Landeck, Paznaun is perfectly connected to the Austrian train network. From Landeck-Zams railway station, you are only a short bus ride away from Paznaun. Bus 260 runs every hour from there in the direction of Galtür.
