Mayrhofen, Zillertal, Tyrol, Austria, September 2009. The Nasenwand klettersteig with safety cables and footholds has a degree of difficulty corresponding to category "C-E" in the middle to upper range. In particular, its length and the level of exposure make it a really demanding "Via Ferrata". The steep track goes through thin mountain forest and across outcrops of rock; and climbers have an impressive view over the mountaineering village during the entire course of the climb, which compensates for all the effort needed. The Zillertal region offers at least 5 via ferrata climbing routes, better known as Klettersteige. Photo by Frits Meyst/Adventure4ever.com
