Via ferrata " Nackter Hund"

High alpine via ferrata experience in the Loferer Steinberge mountains

A perfect combination of a challenging mountain climb, via ferrata and unique panorama views - the via ferrata "Nackter Hund" in the Loferer Steinberge mountains. This high alpine via ferrata route leads to one of the highest summits of the mountain range, the Mitterhorn (2,506m) and offers a unparalleled view of the surrounding mountain landscape and the Kitzbühel Alps from the summit. Caution should be taken, particularly in the Spring and Autumn, due to snow residue! As the ascent of this via ferrata is only possible in combination with a high alpine mountain climb, this climb is only recommended for hikers with alpine experience, in excellent physical condition and with good stamina.
