This unique via ferrata does not lead over rock, but is built directly onto the Schlegeis dam. What is different? There is no rock or tree available as an additional grip to hold on to. A completely different kind of climbing experience, surrounded by nothing but the concrete wall. You need to be able to cope with heights to climb the dam. Two rest areas have been set up to take a breather. There is also a C variant for those who want to go even higher. The material and construction are the same as for all other via ferratas.
