Via Ferrata Britannia

The Britannia via ferrata promises thrills and unique views of the Saas mountains. The level of difficulty of the via ferrata is between K-3 (moderately difficult) and K-4 (difficult), some climbing experience is an advantage. The route to the start leads from the Britannia hut in the direction of the glacier path/Mattmark. The first challenge begins right at the start, where you climb up the rock and over individual climbing aids to an easier traverse in the rock. With a view of the Britannia hut, the route climbs again and remains exciting. After around two thirds of the via ferrata, the rock forms a small "plain" that invites you to take a breather. This is followed by the most spectacular part on the ridge of the Hinner Allalin. Here the spectacular view opens up on all sides. The blue and white marked descent leads over the Hohlaub Glacier back to the Britannia Hut. There may be snowfields in some places at any time.
