Selected alternatives for you
    Short, easy approach, view of the Dachstein, and an opportunity to break make this via ferrata round distinctive.

    The Laserer alpin path runs directly above the water of the Vorderer Gosausee. It is a well-secured sport/fun via ferrata with a length of 420 m. Due to the short approach and the option to break it up (via ferrata round), it is suitable even in uncertain weather. Particularly impressive is the view of the lake and Dachstein.

    Author’s recommendation

    If there is a queue at the entry point - you can also start the climb at the Himmelsleiter and still maintain the route direction.

    Safety information

    Ladders and the rope bridge must be crossed separately. Do not drop anything - hiking trail! It is advisable to carry a sling at the rope bridge.

    Roadbook

    From the parking lot, you ascend to the Gosausee.  To the left of the guesthouse, the Gosausee circular route (east side) leads directly to the entry point.

    The first part of the path runs just below the hiking trail, close above the water surface. A blue sign indicates the direction. For difficulties between A and C, it goes almost horizontally to the Himmelsleiter. Here, we climb outside the hiking trail that is blasted into the rock to reach the slabs above. In a curve, the path runs through slabby Dachstein limestone (B to C)  to the highest point. Descending, a rope bridge (B) is eventually reached, which partly crosses directly over the Gosau circular path. Once more, it goes up to the Adlerhorst (B) with a bench and via ferrata logbook. Descending, last on a ledge, the starting point at the hiking trail is reached again (first A, then B).

    Return the same way as the ascent

    Die Seile sind flexibel und lassen sich weit nach unten ziehen. Es ist aber stark von der Greifhöhe abhängig. Mein Bauchgefühl sagt mit 10 Jahren könnte klappen mit 7 Jahren eher schwierig.

    Meines Erachtens sollte es für 10 Jahre und entsprechender Körpergröße ok sein; es sind aber viele C-Stellen und daher recht kraftraubend....
