https://www.sac-cas.ch/en/huts-and-tours/sac-route-portal/tierberglihuette-sac-2147000269/via-ferrata/tierbergli-via-ferrata-674/

Meeting point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/DU2Aou1jF9nBfQPu9, parking at Alpin Center Sustenpass 

Possible to use public transportation, but it requires more than 3 hours (6:10 from Zurich HB)

Start Time: 9:45, 7:50 from Zürich (if we all go by cars, we can go earlier)

Grade: K4 (D), Length: 500 Hm

Route: Its all about location. This not only applies to real estate, but also to via ferratas, as in the case of the "Tierbergli", with its rocky scenery towards "Tälli", and the broad expanse of surrounding glacier which gives that high-alpine feeling. The builders of the new ferrata here have done a good job here, creating an adventurous and challenging new route to the Tierbergli hut through the cliff below. The first section describes an elaborate approach loop to arrive at a slightly overhanging wall, where a difficult crux arrises (K4, despite abundant iron aids). The second section is more difficult overall, though has no comparable crux section. And at the end of the ferrata you can enjoy a beer or "Wurscht u Moscht".
approach to the ferrata is easy T2.

Weather: Good weather is expected.

Required equipment: Via Ferrata set (harness, set, helmet), water
Recommended equipment: gloves, warm clothes to change, a meal

Unfortunately, the weather doesn't look very good on Friday, so I am postponing this event for one week to next Saturday.

Just FYI, if you are driving then instead of parking at the indicated meeting point, for 5 CHF you can drive to Parkplatz Umpol ( https://maps.app.goo.gl/XGEdC6VGwqbW97KD7 ), which is maybe 200 m from the start of the Klettersteig.
