Route description Via Ferrata Jubilaeus (K3) is a newly built route offering the shortest link between Chelenalptal and the Dammahütte, making it ideal for connecting the Chelenalphütte and Dammahütte on the 5-hut Panoramaweg tour where a via ferrata set is already required. The approach from Hinter Röti has been partially re-equipped and is marked white-blue-white, and the route can be climbed in either direction. Via ferrata sets can be rented at the Dammahütte, Chelenalphütte, or Hotel Dammagletscher in Göscheneralp, and a model display there shows whether the route is open or closed.
