Via Ferrata – Donnerkogel

This is a via Ferrata up the Donnerkogel, which is just behind our house. We cheated and got a ride up as high as the road would go (about 10 minutes) then hiked (about an hour and a half) to the start of the route. Another option would be to drive to Gosau and take the gondola up, so the start of the route would be a 15 minute hike.

Including the car ride up and down (from the same point), as well as a beer on the way down (half an hour) the round trip was about 7 hours.
