Vacker tur med storslagna vyer! Bra beskrivning av rutt, gick lätt att hitta. Det tog 1,5 timma upp och en timma ner för oss. Det finns en parkering om man fortsätter 100 m förbi restaurangen.

schöne, neue Holztreppen bis zur Spitze, auch mit Hund easy machbar. ein Mülleimer irgendwi wäre noch cool, dann müsste man den Hundebeutel beim nächsten mal nicht 2 km mitschleppen und anschließend noch mit dem Auto mitnehmen.

Entspannte Wanderung mit sportlicher Steigung. Als Herausforderung gesehen kann die Tour auch in etwas mehr als einer Stunde gemacht werden. Im Tal gibt es eine vernünftige Einkehrmöglichkeit und einen kleinen Laden der Selbstgemachtes von der Ziege verkauft.

Tolle Strecke, der Anstieg am Einstieg ist aber wahrlich nicht zu unterschätzen. Einzelne Schneefelder auf dem Weg Ende Mai waren anstrengend, Stiefel und Stöcke sind sehr zu empfehlen.
