Mountain sports in Carinthia - Via Ferrata

Via ferrata in Carinthia is a spectacular experience for those who love adventure, heights and breathtaking views. This southern Austrian state offers an impressive variety of via ferrata routes — from easy beginner routes for families to challenging via ferrata for experienced mountaineers. With the sun on your face and the fresh mountain air around you, you climb over rock formations, steel ladders and suspension bridges to places normally only accessible to climbers.

One of the most famous routes is the Kanzianiberg near Finkenstein, where you can choose from dozens of well-secured routes with different levels of difficulty. This climbing garden is perfect for beginners and advanced climbers alike and offers a wonderful view of Lake Faaker See. For those who really want to reach the heights, there are impressive routes in the Hohe Tauern and the Carnic Alps, where you can climb between three-thousand-metre peaks and encounter chamois or ibexes along the way.
