Via Ferrata – Gosausee
There is a great via ferrata route at Gosausee, only a half hour from our house. It is rated B with some short sections of C and boasts a great cable-crossing. It was my first via ferrata so my heart was in my throat over the crossing but made it ok. Here are some pictures from the route.
Overview of the main part of the route (follow the white line on the cliff)
Lower section of the via ferrata
The lower section is very close to the lake.
There are excellent foot rungs any time the rock footholds are sketchy.
Looking down to the lake from the upper section.
The cable crossing - heart in the throat for me!
