Klettersteig

Originally built for military purposes in WWI, klettersteig, or as they are known in English, via ferrata routes have been built all over the alps. Below are some pictures for the Drachenwand (Dragon Wall) near Salzburg. By the time I was finished, it was, as can be expected, pouring rain.




Some pics of the route up Zugspitz in Germany.





 The glaciers in Europe are in full retreat. If there is any doubt that the climate is changing go take a walk in the Alps.
