Description

Update information

Characteristics

The best ferrata from the whole circuit. Eight hundred meters of steel rope awaits for you. The first 350 meters is simple, you go down the C-part, then about 80 meters, when you climb a slightly overhanging part from the top down to the rope bridge. After climbing the rope bridge, you will see about 150 meters of traverse and finally 250 meters long, difficult climbing, when you climb close to the waterfall. Don't be fooled by video and photos. Ferrata is not easy.
