Climbing. In Tyrol
There is a wide range of climbing opportunities: varied climbing areas and an impressive via ferrata leading to the Bettelwurfhütte in the Halltal valley in the Karwendel Nature Park are sure to set the hearts of mountain enthusiasts racing, as is, for example, the climbing area at Glungezer.
The fact that the Hall-Wattens region is a true climber’s paradise is also confirmed by highly authoritative sources.
Heinz Zak, Tyrol’s leading climber and extreme mountaineer, raves about the climbing areas:
"It’s simply an amazing, unspoilt area and a special experience to be hanging on the north faces, smelling the fragrant alpine meadows below and hearing the ringing of the cowbells", says the mountaineering expert about climbing in the Halltal.
It doesn’t exactly sound like a “typical” climbing experience, but rather something quite special.
If you don’t have your own kit, you can hire a complete via ferrata set from Bikeverleih Total, right next to the Glungezerbahn valley station. This includes a climbing harness, a via ferrata set and a climbing helmet. The cost per day is €22.00.
