Via ferrata Via ferrata "Blauspitze"

a) from the Blauspitz mountain station – 25 minutes: via the recently developed path in the east cirque beneath the Weißer and Blauer Knopf, an information board there shows the via ferrata routes. b) From the mountain station for the chair lift at the Glocknerblick mountain restaurant via the signposted hiking trail (No. 516) heading for the Hohes Tor and Blauspitze. After Garnotzeck bear left on the red signposted route, following the ski piste to the Blauspitz mountain station; continue as route described in a). Total approx. 1 hour 15 minutes. c) From Großdorf via hiking trail 516 to the Glocknerblick mountain restaurant (approx. 1 ½ hours); continue as above.

a) Via the signposted standard path heading north on the Teplitzer trail (No. 516). Cross beneath the east ridge of the Blauspitze and back to the piste terrain. b) Via a short ascent on the ridge to the Blaue Knopf in the west. Continuing south, along the ridge (A) which is partly rope-secured, down to a saddle. Head east from there down the signposted path, where you once again meet the ascent route (somewhat longer but charming in terms of the scenery).
