Climbing the Jezerní stěna (Via ferrata Vír) offers a fantastic experience for those looking for a moderate challenge. Rated B/C, it's a good step up from beginner ferratas without being overly demanding. The route follows the rocky face of the dam wall, providing stunning views of the Vír reservoir. Expect a mix of metal ladders, rungs, and cables that help you navigate the steeper sections. While not technically difficult, the sustained exposure and some slightly overhanging parts can be tiring, so good stamina is recommended. Bring appropriate via ferrata gear, including a helmet, harness, and via ferrata set. Check weather conditions beforehand, as rain can make the rock slippery and the ferrata more challenging. Overall, Jezerní stěna is a rewarding climb with beautiful scenery, perfect for intermediate ferrata enthusiasts.
