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.
