Regarding the difficulty of the Säuleck via ferrata, opinions vary: originally rated "C" by the builder, rating proposals quickly rose to "E". Two circumstances are particularly noteworthy:
- The via ferrata in the core zone of the Hohe Tauern National Park was built without step pins or similar aids. Therefore, a clean foot technique is especially required. It is also often useful to use the natural holds on the rock. Anyone who only pulls themselves up on the steel cable will soon complain about tired upper arms!
- The via ferrata is located in a high alpine environment. The approach from the valley alone, with 1,300 meters of elevation gain, is a mountain tour in itself, which is why an overnight stay in the Arthur-von-Schmidhaus is highly recommended! Furthermore, factors such as altitude, weather, and personal fitness must be included in the tour planning.
Those who take this into account will find a wonderful via ferrata experience in magnificent surroundings!
From the Dösental car park (paid) along the marked hiking trail to the Arthur-von-Schmidhaus. You then initially follow the normal route to Säuleck until the signposted junction to the via ferrata. Through rough blockwork directly to the start at a conspicuous slab ramp (to the right of a larger, partly debris-covered ramp, which is crossed further up).
The via ferrata essentially follows the south ridge up to a subpeak on the west ridge. Finally, directly on the airy west ridge right up to the summit cross.
Descent along the Säuleck normal route.
