Climbing

In the "Stohlwond" climbing garden, you can test your skills on a variety of routes. 

If you still need the right equipment, Rent and Go Ratschings at the valley station of the Ratschings-Jaufen cable cars is the perfect place for you. Here you can rent high-quality climbing gear to start your adventure fully equipped.

The Ibex Via Ferrata in Ratschings offers something for everyone: from first climbing experiences for children to challenging routes for adrenaline junkies.

Near the end of the valley, above the Pulvererhof, a rock face rises, facing south, which quickly becomes snow-free and dries out quickly after rain. Thanks to these optimal conditions, the short approach, and the picturesque, quiet surroundings, the via ferrata is typically accessible for two-thirds of the year.

Nestled peacefully in the beautiful alpine landscape of the upper Ratschingstal valley, "Stohlwond" is almost hidden, offering climbers a variety of routes ranging from easy to medium difficulty. It is the close contact with the rock and the indescribable feeling of reaching the top that make this sport so special.

"Stohlwond" in the back of the Ratschingstal valley offers exactly these experiences. The climbing garden faces south, which means you can enjoy climbing fun until November. In autumn and spring, you might even be lucky enough to encounter a chamois, with whom you can race up the rocks!
