Hiking tips

Via ferrata

Most of the via ferratas around St. Anton am Arlberg demand nerves of steel, endurance, courage, strength and skill. The holiday region boasts, on the one hand, lush alpine meadows and cosy mountain inns and on the other, a rugged mountain world which attracts many climbers from all over the world to the Arlberg every year between June and October. This is where everyone will find the challenge they’re looking for.

Quickest access:
The Vallugabahn and Kapallbahn mountain stations provide the most direct way to the respective entrances of the via ferratas.
