For Via Ferrata enthusiasts!

Hello any Via Ferrata enthusiasts!

There is a new Via Ferrata (a.k.a. Klettersteig in local parlance) in the Lauterbrunnen Valley, Switzerland. It is the Murren-Gimmelwald Via Ferrata and opened in 2008. It is not yet in the latest edition of the pocket Swiss via Ferrata guide - nor in SP - until now. I have just created a page for it - see http://www.summitpost.org/murren-gimmelwald-via-ferrata/737721

It is nearly as exposed as the Allmenalp VF at Kandersteg, in one short section, but much less strenuous - and is technically easier being a K3 as opposed to K4.

Cheers,
Mark
