Via Ferrata Classics in the Bavarian Uplands

<p>The via ferrata classics in Bavaria's local mountains combine an enjoyable experience of nature with calculable risk. This climbing book shows the 50 most beautiful via ferratas between Allgäu and Berchtesgaden. A hundred years ago, the ascents to the highest peaks in the German Alps - Watzmann and Zugspitze - were made accessible with climbing facilities and via ferrata passages. Today, via ferrata climbing is a discipline in its own right. Challenging summits, rocky passages and ridge crossings are no longer reserved for climbers alone. In addition to detailed descriptions of the routes, this book also provides you with all the important information you need to know about difficulty, route, access and refreshment stops.<br></p>
