The Braunwalder via ferrata in the Glarus Alps, consisting of three sections, is definitely a highlight among the Swiss via ferrata routes. Breathtaking panorama, easy, short access and variety are its hallmarks.

«Kurz, aber deftig», so umschreiben die Betreiber ihren Klettersteig Husky Lodge. Er besteht aus 200 Tritten und Bügeln, 400m Stahlseil und einer fünf Meter hohen Eisenleiter und überwindet eine gut 100m hohe, teilweise überhängende Felswand im Muotathal. Die technischen Schwierigkeiten liegen im mittleren Bereich (K3-K4), aber Grundkondition, Schwindelfreiheit und etwas Mut sind trotzdem Voraussetzung für eine genussvolles Erlebnis. In luftiger Höhe wartet das Wandbuch auf den Eintrag und eine Bank lädt zum Verweilen. Die Begehung des Steigs ist kostenlos, das notwendige Material lässt sich in der gegenüberliegenden Husky Lodge mieten. Der Klettersteig ist somit ideal geeignet, um erste Erfahrungen zu sammeln mit dem Abenteuer Klettersteig.
