  • Daubenhorn Via Ferrata is the longest via ferrata in Switzerland and is graded K5-6 (Extremely difficult). The path is secured in the steep rock face of the Daubenhorn (2942m), rising above Leukerbad with more than 2000 meters of steel cables and 216 meters of ladders. At the top of the path, one can climb through the imposing rock wall on Via Konst.

    It's one of the most demanding via ferrata climbs in Europe, mostly because of almost vertical and very long route to the summit. It was my first via ferrata trip. Although, being physically fit, it still took me 10 hours to complete it, mainly because of lack of experience being compensated by slow and cautious climbing technique.

    This was ridiculously incredible! Thank you so much for putting this on UA-cam. Headed there in August and this was a real wake up. Reality call. This hike is no joke. Can I ask you? Did you use a resting system at all to take break?

    Nice one and well done bro! I will be doing Via Ferrata - Daubenhorn next year Insha'Allah.
    Can you please tell me about the wrist watch you're wearing, seems a good one. Is it Garmin?

      The watch that I'm wearing is an old Xiaomi-Huami "Amazfit Pace" from 2016, with an aftermarket black stainless steel bracelet from china.
