Route description

A sport and fun climbing route with rope bridge, abseiling point and a spider web. The Silzer via ferrata is more a climbing fun park than a classic via ferrata. Attention, the rope bridge is not suitable for smaller people, because the upper rope is not accessible for them. All passages can be bypassed or can be reached via alternative routes. The "stations" can also be walked in any order and direction. The access to the via ferrata with the two variants is very short and easy. The left via ferrata is (C/D) leads to the rope bridge (blue marking). After the rope bridge (B/C) you can abseil down to the spider (own double rope 50 m, abseiling device etc. required). Or after the rope bridge you can descend to the spider on the same way back. When walking on the spider's web or the ladder, a second person can secure you from above with an additional rope. The stands for this are available.
