The climbing arena Kaiserwinkl, built in 2011 by the mountain camaraderie Walchsee, offers three via ferrata in good rock. The 70 to 300 meters long routes are D/E and interspersed with difficult, sometimes even overhanging sections. The Bergkamaden via ferrata demands a lot of fitness and rewards it with magnificent views. The Ottenalm-Direttissima, the heaviest of the three climbs, leads vertically uphill. Through steel ropes and two suspension bridges secure the two paths, which do not have an emergency exit. From a rope bridge over a gorge - aptly called "Schluchtenscheißerl" - the climber has an unobstructed view of the natural landmark Hochmoor Schwemm. For beginners, the Walchseerunde (C) is ideal as a practice via ferrata, which does not lead up to the summit ridge.
The descent from the Bergkamaden via ferrata and from the Ottenalm-Direttissima leads over the ridge path of the Harauer Spitze.
Complete via ferrata equipment including a helmet is required for all three routes, a safety rope is recommended for children and beginners. The climbing arena can be used free of charge and is accessible from Easter to 1 November. The cosy Ottenalm is best reached from Walchsee in a 40-minute hike or by mountain bike.
