The best way to reach the Maltatal is to take take the A10 highway from Salzburg or Villach, get of the highway at Gmund drive through the village of Malta to the end of the road Falleralm (a restaurant). Either leave your car there if the road conditions up higher are bad, or continue up the road to the ice falls.

Untitled CommentFor those of you who understand German, there is an Ice climbing guide book for the Carinthia Alps region, which includes the Maltatal valley.
Otherwise other useful links are:

www.planetmountain.com (in Italian and English, contains some info and topos)
