Front Cover (1)

Seasons

Mid-June to mid-September, but probably best avoided when snowy high up unless you are appropriately equipped and experienced.

Centres

Innsbruck, Garmisch and Füssen in the western part, Kufstein, Salzburg and Berchtesgaden in the east.

Difficulty

Treat as mountaineering, sometimes climbing. Klettersteig are broadly equivalent to via ferrata, so you need mountain experience, a good head for heights and the right equipment. A great experience if you have all these.

Must See

Amazing routes on big mountains where most climbers wouldn’t go. Dachstein routes and the Zugspitze.
