Gorfenspitz via ferrata

The Gorfenpitze via ferrata route is an easy, short via ferrata route that proceeds beneath the impressive Gorfenspitze via ledges and a platform up to the summit.

The ascent from the wind gap beneath the Gorfenspitze up to the via ferrata is very steep and proceeds through easy climbing terrain. The new route, which is secured with ropes, was re-laid in summer 2019 and makes it possible to enjoy a hassle-free, secure ascent to the summit. The cable areas on the old climb to the summit via an exposed, short ridge which had loose boulders, have been removed.
 

Thanks to its excellent connection, getting to Galtür by train or bus is a comfortable alternative to travelling by car. Buy a train ticket to Landeck-Zams and take Bus No. 260 towards Paznaun, which departs directly in front of the train station. The drive to Galtür takes about one hour.

Proceed through Paznaun to Galtür. Before the Jambach, turn off for Jamtal. After 100 metres, there is a car park for hikers on the left hand side of the road. The parking machines do not operate in the summer months.
