Climbing the 'Hohe Munde Westgrat Klettersteig' (Grade B) is a fantastic introduction to the world of via ferratas, offering stunning panoramic views without being overly technical. Located in the majestic Hohe Munde massif in Tyrol, Austria, this route provides a rewarding experience suitable for beginners with some prior experience or those looking for a scenic and moderately challenging climb.
The Klettersteig is well-secured with steel cables, occasional ladders, and artificial steps, ensuring a safe ascent along the exposed west ridge. While graded B, meaning it's generally easy with good protection, it still offers exciting airy sections and beautiful vistas into the Inn Valley, the Karwendel, and Wetterstein ranges. The ascent involves a pleasant mixture of hiking and light climbing, allowing you to gradually gain height and immerse yourself in the Alpine environment. The descent is typically via a hiking path, completing a rewarding journey from start to finish. It's an ideal choice for experiencing the beauty of the Alps from a different perspective.
