The Rotschitza-klamm-Klettersteig, a delightful via ferrata graded B/C, is nestled in the picturesque Rotschitza gorge in Austria. It's an excellent choice for beginners and those looking for a scenic, moderately challenging climb. The route winds its way through the impressive gorge, offering thrilling passages with sturdy steel cables, a few ladders, and even some small bridges traversing the stream. The consistent B/C difficulty means it's engaging without being overly exposed or strenuous, allowing you to truly enjoy the stunning natural surroundings – the sound of rushing water, lush greenery, and unique rock formations. Once you complete the Klettersteig section, the return journey is typically a pleasant and well-marked hiking trail, often leading through a peaceful forest, bringing you comfortably back to the starting point near the car park.
