Dohlenfelsen

The rock was worked on from both sides by the original Danube. When climbing you will always find fossil sponges and shell fragments. The Schutter spring is also nearby.

Beautiful autumn hike in the Urdonautal near Konstein. The Oberlandweg is a fanatical via ferrata that combines hiking, simple rock climbing and via ferrata. From the top you can enjoy the wonderful panorama over today's Wellheim Dry Valley.

Via ferrata (difficulty B) with a beautiful view, suitable for beginners and children as described. Maybe depending on which place and which children, I thought to myself. But children were definitely there.
