Best Time of Year
Description
The Rigidalstock via ferrata above Engelberg offers two varied routes for different demands:
Rigidalstock ridge (C/K3):
Ideal for beginners
Suitable for ascent and descent
Moderate difficulty level, excellently secured.
Can be climbed both up and down.
Rigidalstock face (D/K4):
Demanding variant for experienced via ferrata climbers.
Recommended only for ascent.
Steeper, more physically demanding sections and technically challenging.
Both routes impress with panoramic views of the surrounding high mountains. A combination of both variants – ascent via the Rigidalstock face, descent via the Rigidalstock ridge – is popular. The route starts and ends at the Brunnihütte, which offers a comfortable refreshment stop directly on the way.
Note: In poor visibility, orientation can be challenging. The route can be combined with the neighboring via ferratas on the Brunnistöckli.
