The tour
This via ferrata is one of the younger ones in the via ferrata garden and, at 420 metres, offers a considerable length. The start is the same as the Franz via ferrata, but then continues to the right to the exit just below the Stoderzinken summit. This via ferrata is dedicated to the writer Peter Rosegger, who explored Gröbming's local mountain at the beginning of the 20th century and recorded his memories in writing. The Peter Rosegger Monument was erected on the Stoderzinken in his honour.
Note: The practice via ferratas Karl, Julius, Emil and David can be easily combined with the Franz or Peter via ferrata in the form of a warm-up via ferrata.

Please note some rules for your safety: Via ferrata tours are exhausting and require stamina, a head for heights and surefootedness. 2. Always use a via ferrata set and a helmet and hang it in the safety rope. Many mountain rescue operations are due to carelessness and bad weather. 3. Many tours are all day.
