Final ladder to the Sparber summit

Highlight • Climb

Last part of the hike may turn a little tricky for occasional hikers, older people or simply those who do not like to deal with open cliffs would better considering the Sparber an advanced/intermediate hike. Before reaching the final iron ladder, that is actually safe and stable but exposed, you will have to go through a short section steep and exposed which in theory would need an harness for the beginners or "weekend warriors". Again is really short but bring an harness and stuff if you want to be on the safe side.
If you are in a group and not everybody feels like reaching the summit, there is a nice and quiet point to rest right before the final section begins. Just do not expect to enjoy the same view you get from the top... :)

Tough tour to one of the viewing peaks of the Salzkammergut, which offers a wonderful view of Lake Wolfgang.

After a week of training at Bifep in Strobl, during which I had to suppress my urge to move, I rewarded myself with a detour to the Sparber.😅
The heat battle was not planned 🥵
Incredibly great mountain that offers a view over the entire Wolfgangsee from Strobl to St. Gilgen.
