Itinerary description
Why worthwhile? Adventurous climb, nice view at the summit.
Starting point: Parzelle Ahorn, nearby house nr. 74 (small parkingspace) [Bludenz - Grosses Walsertal - Marul 976m].
Time: 3½ - 4½ hours.
Details: adventurous climb to the summit almost straight over the ridge. Secured with steel wire ropes and a few steel steps. Overall not so well marked. Rest of the tour over mountain paths and alps.
Route description:
Towards Parzelle Ahorn: by car to Marul. Behind Gasthof Walserklause (hotel) we will find a smal metalled road on our left going upwards (road sign pointing to Stafelfederalpe and Kellaspitz). After the 4th turn the car can be parked nearby house nr. 74 (here you are at parzelle Ahorn). Past the house a sign points towards the Stafelfederalpe and Kellaspitz. A path goes upwards through the alps (so don't stay on the unmetalled road!).
At the Stafelfederalpe, at another sign (pointing towards Kellaspitz) you must pay attention to a path going upwards though the alps towards a 'sattel' (kind of a ridge). This path can be easily overlooked. It is best to walk in turns over the paths made by cows towards the little ridge (called Bettlerstapfen).
From this 'sattel' go to the right (east / south-east). Pretty soon you'll get to the actual ridge of Kellaspitz where we have a good view at our climbing route. This route is well protected with wire ropes and steel steps where needed. Enjoy the climb, it is a lot of fun!
The way down is the same as the way up only reversed. Please climb and descend with care and take it easy, do not hurry at all.
Done in 1999.
