The Große Kinigat Klettersteig (Grade D) offers an exhilarating and challenging alpine experience in the heart of the Carnic Alps. This via ferrata is renowned for its exposed sections, demanding vertical climbs, and breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding peaks and valleys. Climbers can expect a long and strenuous route featuring airy traverses and steep rock faces, requiring excellent physical condition, absolute sure-footedness, and a strong head for heights. While it presents a significant challenge even for experienced via ferrata enthusiasts, the sense of accomplishment and the spectacular high-alpine scenery make it an immensely rewarding ascent. Standard via ferrata equipment, including a helmet, harness, and via ferrata set, is absolutely essential.
