Stubaier Alpen ~ 2402 m.a.s.l.
Characteristics
Ferrata was built in 1986, begins with a steep part which you climb using artificial steps. Then you turn right using a traverze. The middle part of the ferrata has a very rugged terrain. In the next passage you climb up the cramps and then past the edge to the right, pull through the manhole and then climb up the wall.
To the last part of the ferrata go through the trough, where is also a turn to the descent path. Then you just climb the rugged terrain with a rock to the top where you have - as it might be otherwise - a beautiful panorama in the dolomite environment.
Difficulty:
3 out of 5 - total time needed: 10h (600min.)

Arrival
By car from Gschnitztal: On the B 182 or the A 13 toll to Matrei. Continue to Gschnitztal for paid parking at Ghf. Feuerstein.
Approach
From the parking lot go to the lift (the possibility of transporting a backpack). Go across the stream to the right to the mountain escarpment. Climb up the serpentines to the Pinnisjoch pass, where is the Innsbrucker Hütte. Continue from the saddle to the right. Around the summit of Kalkwand go to the Ilmspitze, the path is sometimes quite steep. The start of the ferrata is behind the tourist shelter.
Exit
Descend to the section where is was a turn to the descent path. Descend down the slippery rubble. Then descend on rocks and then on gravel, right along the rock. You will come across a path that leads slightly uphill back to the start of the ferrata and from there take the same path as you came.
