Route description for the Burg via ferrata
To reach the trailhead, start at the Versettla Bahn upper station and follow Hiking Trail 10, “Gipfelweg Madrisella,” then turn right toward the summit after 15 minutes. You’ll reach the trailhead after another 15 minutes; the trail winds its way up near the transmission towers.
The Burg via ferrata is well-suited for families and beginners looking to practice belay techniques. The route leads along the ridge for a few metres with a gentle incline. You’ll be treated to stunning views of Heimspitze, Madrisella and Versettlaspitze, while the 3,000-metre peaks of the Silvretta range are visible in the background.
From the exit point, you can reach the Versettla Bahn mountain station in just over 30 minutes. After your climb, be sure to take a well-deserved break on Nova Stoba’s sundeck!
Please note: The Burg via ferrata can also be climbed in winter, but this is only recommended for experienced winter via ferrata climbers (difficulty level C).
