Family climbing route Blausee
from 6 years!
The family via ferrata Blausee is a short but appealing and easy ferrata at the beginning of the
Obersulzbachtal valley at the foot of the Großvenediger. The via ferrata has some steeper sections connected by easy
crossings; it is therefore also ideal for children or novice climbers. If you combine the
via ferrata with a visit to the nearby Blausee, you get a beautiful round course in a perfect natural setting.
Detailed route description:
In the middle section, steps up to B, mostly around A/B.
Child-friendly:
Yes
Provider:
Tauernguide
Equipment:
Complete via ferrata equipment and helmet; for children, possibly an additional safety rope.

Additional information on difficulty:
Sections B, mostly around A/B
Approach to the wall:
From P2 (the upper parking lot just after entering the parking system), a few steps downhill, then right on a
forest path under the rock wall. At the end, ascend on a steep path to the start.
Descent:
At the top, on a path to a pull road, on this to the right until the gravel road (those who want to go to Blausee can
go left on a path down to Blausee). On the wide gravel road, you can return downhill to the
parking lot.
Remarks:
The via ferrata is not recommended in wet conditions.
