Ötztal Valley

Despite the fact that I did it on the last day of the trip, climbing the Stuibenfall waterfall was absolutely the highlight of my Otztal Valley experience. No wonder it is said to one of the most beautiful and impressive via ferrata climbs in Tirol. I can confirm this!

Stuibenfall is Tirol’s highest waterfall (160m) and the climbing route runs up a steep towering rock wall just next to it. Towards the end, one has to cross the waterfall at the highest point on a rope bridge. I have experienced many adrenaline rushes in my life, but when climbing this part I literally felt my heart in my throat.
