The course areas and via ferratas are prepared and set up for Rock the Alpspitze by the VIVALPIN guides.
So you are not on the via ferratas and climbing routes, which are often overcrowded at weekends.
For beginners and advanced climbers - no previous climbing or via ferrata experience is required

"Learned is learned. This is especially true for via ferrata techniques. On a day or week-long course, you will learn everything you need to know to climb via ferratas independently. And you won't forget it so quickly after the intensive training on the practice via ferrata. Many viae ferratae await you, which you can climb effectively and with a good feeling."
