Traunsee Klettersteig

A very beautiful and well-built via ferrata which, in combination with the Hans Hernler via ferrata, makes for a challenging mountain adventure. The very airy via ferrata is a very difficult sport via ferrata - often with D grades, rarely easier and leads over a vertical rock pillar over an altitude difference of around 150 metres to the summit of the Traunstein. The climb ends directly in the "beer garden" of the Gmundner Hütte. If you don't feel up to this difficult climb, simply follow the neighbouring Hans Hernler-Steig (B) to the Gmundner Hütte.
Due to the long ascent (3 hours!) and the difficult climbing sections, fitness is the main requirement here! But once you have made it to the summit, you can expect a magnificent view of the Totes Gebirge, Dachstein and Lake Traunsee. Due to the south-west-facing location, take plenty of fluids with you in summer!
