Steel cables lead over oblique slabs to the vertical starting ladder, iron rungs then help through a chimney. The easy "Obelixquergang" is followed by a steep rock step, made easy with more iron rungs; more ledges and steps follow until the so-called 'ramp'. The ramp is climbed (good natural steps and handles) to reach a grass band. Head shortly left, then practice your pull ups on a 15 meter high vertical wall. Behind the "Geissrücken" a wooden bench invites you to take a breather. One should take advantage of the opportunity, as the difficulties still increase slightly higher on the wall. After a longer easy traverse the next challenge for strength and psyche follows: a power sapping 30 meter high wall. This is followed by the "Panoramica", which lives up to its name. More iron steps lead up a slab to another, more difficult traverse, where either good technique or brute strength is required. The next highlight of the route is the "Deichmannsteg", a three-cable bridge. If you manage this small balancing act, the route book awaits. Then there is one last challenge, the "Wailing Wall": 40 meters high, slightly overhanging at the beginning - that will make your forearms burn. The rest is merely an encore: a small iron bridge, a last easy step, and then you stand next to the summit cross and enjoy the great panorama of Sulzfluh (2817 m, 4¾ hrs.). Please feel free to make a small donation towards the ferrata's upkeep. A big Thank you! in advance.
