La Ferrata Steinbergerweg retrace the historic climb on the north-eastern wall of the Crete Collinetta (Cellon), opened during the Great War by an Austrian military expedition led by Major Steinberger. Salt without excessive difficulty; long gorges and colatoi, and è of great historical interest for the numerous testimonies of the fighting. Difficultà medio-bassa in the equipped sections.

Starting point the Passo di Monte Croce Carnico (1360 m), on the Italian-Austria border, reachable in about 40' from Tolmezzo (Udine) to the SS 52b. Open road signs on Google Maps. You can climb from the Austrian side (with the option of crossing the Cellon war tunnel, described in the sheet of the Ferrata Senza Confini) or from the Italian one, described here: longer but less challenging. From the parking lot follow the signs 146 on comfortable mule track on the southern side of the ridge, until you cross the path 147 for the Cellon (from the Marinelli Refuge); taken on 147 to the right you climb più decided along a war mule track with exposed cenges and short tunnels until the Schulter Contrafforte (1736 m). Continue on rocks and mug, paying attention not to lose the track, until a crossroads marked on rock (left the Senza Confini, right the Steinbergerweg): holding the right, on the gravel and then cutting in altitude the north-eastern wall, you reach l' attack, with a marble plate in German (1870 m, 1h 30' from the parking ).

The route follows the route followed by Austrian soldiers. A colatoio rises and gradually crosses left onto rocks and grass in discreet exposure (attention to the bottom and unstable rocks; the cable è instead it has been recently renovated). We then move to a gola rocky where we face many equipped stretches, with some free climbing passage (maximum I+) and unstable stones. The cable is found on the left side, climbing steep passages towards a short ridge, then a last colatory with l' aid of the rope up to a grassy saddle where the cables end and join the paths from the Senza Confini and the Italian side (2103 m, 1h from' attack, 2h 30' totali). On clear track you climb all' east anticyme and, among many remains of the Great War, to the summit of the Crete of Collinetta (2241 m, 20' from the end of the ferrata, about 3h totali), with metal cross and memorial plaque.

Pleasant, medium-low difficulty and very climbing: apart from the initial cross-section and a couple of more vertical steps, it is devoid of objective difficulty.

GPS tracks (GPX and KMZ); the map of the Central Carnic Alps is useful for the area.

You return to the crossroads reached at the end of the ferrata and you go right on the path 147, Italian side, cutting horizontally; along the mule track you rejoin the path dell' approach to the parking lot (1h 30' from the summit, 4h 30' totali).

Shares a lot of approach and return with the most demanding Ferrata Senza Confini. From nearby Rifugio Marinelli you reach the attack of the difficult Ferrata to the north wall of Coglians; downstream of the pass the Path equipped Cuestalta. Further south, in the Carnic Prealps, the Cassiope, la Ferrata at the Clap Varmost e la 50 of the Clap.
