Brettl Rock Climbing Area

Highlight • Climb

The gentle introduction to Brettl.
After a few meters the slightly more “difficult” section begins, which is again defused by a lot of metal 😉

Mittelbergwand Summit Cross and View

Highlight • Summit

Most beautiful section of the Norissteig with summit cross.
Getting into the chimney is very ambitious and requires surefootedness.
At the end of the via ferrata you will be rewarded with a great view 😎⛰️

Höhenglücksteig – End of Section 3

Highlight • Climb

The Höhenglückstein in Hirschbachtal is one of the most beautiful and demanding, there are 3 parts, so there is something for everyone, the last part is considered the most strenuous, when you get off you are rewarded with a breathtaking view. A via ferrata set and experience are highly recommended.
