Climbing and bouldering in the Attersee-Attergau region
The holiday region has a lot to offer. A brand new indoor climbing and bouldering hall in the Freizi in St. Georgen im Attergau, the Attersee high ropes course and the outdoor climbing tower in Unterach.
For experienced climbers, the Höllengebirge offers a wide variety of climbing routes of varying degrees of difficulty and the very challenging Attersee via ferrata Mahdlgupf - one of the many via ferrata routes in the Salzkammergut. The canyoning in the Gimbach Cascades is a real adventure. Certified and local climbing and mountain guides accompany you on numerous activities.
High Ropes Courses in the Attersee-Attergau Region
Get to know new experiences and exceed your own limits: At adventurous stations, under the guidance of a safety trainer and suitable safety equipment, the Attersee high ropes course in Seewalchen and the High Kix high ropes course at the Eggenberg scout camp offer you just that. Have a unique experience.
High Ropes Course Attersee
An unforgettable adventure at airy heights: Whether it's a joint outing with friends or family, an outdoor adventure with the school, the company, a club or the regulars' table, or even a bachelor party - the Attersee high ropes course has the perfect activity programme for every person and every occasion.
The important thing is that you are accompanied by professional safety instructors and you alone decide how far you want to go.
High Kix – High Ropes Course at Eggenberg Scout Camp
Overcoming, trust and team spirit are required in the High Kix high ropes course: Together as a team, you are guided by trained trainers and can rely entirely on the safety and sense of responsibility of your partners. You learn to recognise your own limits and to use the skills of your colleagues. In the community you will achieve more than you expect.
Climbing in the Höllengebirge
The Höllengebirge offers various climbing routes with different degrees of difficulty. In addition to the Adlerspitze and the Attersee Klettersteig Mahdlgupf, the bouldering area Attersee Forstamt and the mountaineering village Steinbach invite you to climb.
The views of the crystal-clear waters of Lake Attersee, where you can cool off after a strenuous tour, combined with the rugged limestone outcrops and rock formations make a tour in the Höllengebirge a special experience.
Die Adlerspitze – das älteste und bekannteste Klettergebiet des Höllengebirges.
The climbing tour (normal route) on the Adlerspitze (1,241 m) leads in 3 extremely airy pitches to the pointed rock tower in the Höllengebirge. Once at the summit, a beautiful panorama opens up over the Attersee and the entire Salzkammergut.
Attersee via ferrata
The Attersee via ferrata leads to the 1261m high Mahdlgupf in Steinbach am Attersee. Stamina and endurance are a must on this tour - as the middle section in particular is steep and in part exposed. For this reason, the entrance was rebuilt in 2020 and now features a D/E passage. The via ferrata is closed from 1 Nov. to 31 March.
Climbing gyms and climbing tower
For all those for whom climbing in the Hell Mountains is too adventurous, the Attersee-Attergau holiday region offers great alternatives: How about, for example, a true indoor bouldering adventure in the new climbing hall in the Attergau leisure centre, a trip to the climbing wall in the sports hall in Steinbach or perhaps a round on the 12-metre high climbing tower in Unterach? Now they are in demand!
