The path from the parking lot via the Erichhütte to the start is well signposted. After that, you follow the cable over countless smaller and larger summits, mostly directly along the ridge. Some more challenging sections must also be climbed down. Mostly shorter walking sections can be mastered without the cable. The last third is challenging again, and you should still have reserves here. A real treat for everyone who likes it a bit steeper and airier.
Definitely not a beginner or children's via ferrata.
