The route

The first 15–20 m through the Overhang Wall are the whole story; above it the route eases and joins Ostromlók útja at the Summit Box. Named for Tálas Zoltán; climbers have been on this wall since 1960.

Exit

Finish on Ostromlók útja and walk down to the village.

Good to know

The entry ticket to MZ/X — climb this cleanly before you think about that one.

warningSelf-guided route — climb at your own risk

This route is free and unsupervised. Apprenaline does not operate it, does not check it and cannot guarantee its condition. Via ferrata carries a real risk of serious injury or death: you need a UIAA-certified via ferrata set, a harness, a helmet and the experience to use them, and you should check the route builders' site for closures (routes in protected areas close for nesting seasons) and the weather before you go — wet rock and storms end a day out here. Guided, gear and photo options on this page are provided by independent operators under the normal booking terms and waiver.
