Via Ferrata Irg 2
Via Ferrata
For the approach from the Dachstein Mountain station, through the Rosmarie Stollen over the Edelgries Glacier, we recommend crampons in the morning (in hard snow conditions).
The route, which was constructed by Ramsau’s mountain guides, was named after the mountaineer who accomplished the first ascent of Dachstein's south face: Georg (Irg) Steiner. The constructors, under the guidance of Hans Prugger, set up a great route with good ‘changing spots’ for unclipping and re-clipping - there is either a good foothold or an iron peg.
In spring: Snowfields cover parts of the path to the entry and the descent - crampons are highly recommended.
Times:
- Via Ferrata - 2:00 h
- Time to Base - 1:00 h
- Time from Top - 1:50 h
- Total - 4:50 h
