Climbing the 'Klettersteig Nackter Hund' (Naked Dog) is a challenging experience, demanding a good level of fitness, surefootedness, and solid nerves. Rated D, it's firmly in the upper-intermediate category, requiring more than just basic Via Ferrata skills. Expect exposed traverses, steep ascents, and potentially significant air under your feet. The rock is typically solid, but you'll need to pay attention to your placements and ensure your gear is properly clipped. The route likely features sustained vertical sections and possibly some short overhangs or demanding moves. Prepare for a physical and mental test, and make sure to check weather conditions before heading out. A properly fitting harness, helmet, Via Ferrata set, and sturdy footwear are essential. If you're not comfortable with heights or exposed positions, this Klettersteig is not for you. It's a rewarding climb for experienced Via Ferrata enthusiasts looking for a thrilling and memorable day out.
