Spring is coming so it's time to refresh our ferrata skills. Or try out if it's something for us.

We will go to the ferrata training wall next to the Weichtalhaus.

The training wall offers routes of difficulties ranging for A to E/F (topo) so it's suitable both from complete beginners and people trying to test their limits.

We will also practice absailing, most important knots, etc.

If someone gets bored or tired, the hut is literally around the corner.
