Dear Norwegians ! Next month I will be traveling though your wonderful country and I would like to do do at least 1 or 2 via-ferratas.
Some travel guide showed me some new ones like Olavsruta, Hekseveggen and Loen. Problem is that Olavsruta and Loen are labeled as F (on a scale of A-F). Hardest one I did to date is a D/E but on the other hand the Visit Norway site says it also takes children from 16yo so cant be extremely hard ?
We want to climb ourselves without a guide.
So my questions:
-
What website do you use to get detailed info on via ferratas (GPX, description etc). I see some stuff on outdooractive but perhaps there are some better options.
-
Does anyone have a picture like this of those routes ? https://www.bergsteigen.com/fileadmin/userdaten/import/topos/intersport_klettersteig_donnerkogel_topo.jpg
-
Do you know what are the hard parts on the routes I mentioned above ?
-
Would you have any other via-ferrata recommendations ?

Loen has several routes, only the newest addition is F.
I went with my daughter many years ago when she was ten, and I have no climbing experience.
