Via Ferrata Pinut

A fascinating nature experience - but not for the faint-hearted: this is the Pinut via ferrata. First mentioned in writing in 1793, it is the oldest via ferrata still in existence in the whole of Switzerland. It was completely renovated in 2007 and since then has offered guests and locals alike a climbing experience of superlatives. So: pack your via ferrata set, climbing harness, helmet, rucksack, weatherproof jacket, sturdy mountain boots, snacks, drinks, sunglasses and first-aid kit and off you go!

Difficulty

K 1-2, not very difficult, comfortably secured with steps and 27 ladders, but very airy in the lowest part.

Approach

A blue sign in Fidaz points the way to the via ferrata. A path through the forest leads up to the foot of the rock (approx. 30 minutes).

Exit

Descent via an old alpine path. In Bargis you meet the road coming up from Fidaz. The marked hiking trail leads away from the road back to Fidaz (approx. 2 hours).
