Kofelsteig Climbing Route

Highlight • Climb

Short via ferrata to the summit, rewarded with a beautiful panoramic view. Alpine terrain, need for a head for heights and sure-footedness required. Risk of falling. Accessible for experienced climbers without equipment. I would rope up children.

Kofel summit cross

Highlight • Summit

The climb was worth it. Great view. The last few meters of the climb are secured with ropes... but it's doable.

Hello, just before the summit the recording in Komoot was accidentally paused.
The steep, straight turn to the right is of course not possible.
