Climbing the Leiternsteig in die Höhle der Dreiäugigen (Trjochglaska) (Grade A) is a relatively accessible via ferrata, ideal for beginners or those seeking a short, scenic adventure. The name, which translates to "Ladder Path to the Cave of the Three-Eyed One," hints at its character: a series of ladders and some light scrambling that lead you to a fascinating cave entrance. While not physically demanding, the exposed nature of the climb offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The metal rungs and cables provide ample security, making it a confidence-building experience. The highlight is undoubtedly reaching the "Three-Eyed Cave" (Trjochglaska), a visually striking formation that invites exploration and photo opportunities. Remember to check weather conditions before heading out and wear appropriate footwear. It's a rewarding climb that combines natural beauty with a touch of adventure.
