    Moderate via ferrata to a beautiful viewpoint mountain, with the possibility to visit other summits nearby. An advantage is certainly that the cable car takes you up, allowing you to enjoy great views in a short time, or you can do a longer mountain route from below with great vistas, so it is a mountain suitable for different mountain interests.

    Author’s recommendation

    great viewpoint mountain that also offers beautiful views without the via ferrata in the beautiful Salzkammergut region.

    Roadbook

    Ascent with the Katrin cable car to nearly 1400m, then steeply down a ski slope to the east and immediately left at a pile of stones as the access path to the via ferrata. On average B-C with great views, fairly airy but never really difficult, quite steep to the summit of Katrin at 1542m elevation. Optionally a few minutes behind the transmitter to Elferkogel, which offers views towards Dachstein and Lake Hallstatt. Return on a narrow path back to the Katrin cable car mountain station.
