The Tälli via ferrata around the Tällistock of the Gadmerflue is a quite old via ferrata in Switzerland. Already in 1993, the direct route was cut into the over 600 m high and steep rock face. Despite its age, the via ferrata does not have to hide from the action-packed sport via ferratas of the new millennium. The spectacular climbing passages, airy traverses, steep ascents as well as the short approach make the via ferrata an absolutely worthwhile climbing destination, which - centrally located - can also be reached relatively quickly from all sides.

Directions
Ascent:
We start our tour at the Tällihütte and follow the marked path first parallel to the slope, then slightly ascending, in a northeasterly direction to the entrance after not even 2 km.
Route:
We climb the steep grassy slopes below the rock face (partly secured). A first short traverse to the left (B) brings us to a ladder (A/B). This is followed by an easy band (B) and a few short ascents (A/B) before we reach a narrow gully (A). Without difficulty we follow the rope protections on a band (A) and reach a bench where we can rest and enjoy the view. Via a ladder (A/B) we reach another long band (A), which in the back part turns into an unsecured walking passage. We climb next to a rock tower (A/B) to a ladder system (B/C) that leads us to a ridge. Following this, we briefly cross an impressive slab (A) and follow the assurances up several ladders (B/C, then A/B) to the climbing book and the checkout. After another bench, five ladders (B) lead up a steep ledge until we reach the exit at the "Freschkopf" in the gravel field.
Descent:
We descend northward on a gravel field, following the markings. After an hour we reach a signpost (right Enstlensee)and keep left towards Sätteli. At Sätteli we change again to the south side of the massif and descend parallel to the slope to the Tällihütte, our starting point.
