    Geiles Ding. Auch vom Bitterichsee durchwegs markiert. Mühsam zur Scharte. Von der Scharte auf anderen Seite runter nach Möglichkeit an der Wand runtertasten sonst ist es durch fehlende Tritte kaum vermeidbar hin und wieder auf dem Hosenboden zu landen. Haut’s nei. 💪

    Eine sehr schöne und gemütliche Hütte. Mit Christoph hat sie einen freundlichen uns sehr hilfsbereiten Hüttenwirt. Das Essen ist hervorragend und danach gibt's einen tollen Esspresso.

    Wirklich tolle Runde, die mir, zu Recht, wärmstens empfohlen wurde. Im Sommer lohnt sich der frühe Start, um den südseitigen Aufstieg durch die Latschen hinter sich zu haben, bevor die Sonne volle Kraft hat aber wegen der vielen Seen und Bächen eine absolute Empfehlung für heiße Sommertage. Wie schon gesagt wurde, ist alles bestens markiert, und selbst zu Einstieg zieht ein sichtbarer Trampelpfad durch's Geröll. Der Weg bis zur Scharte lohnt sich für den tollen Ausblick aber trotzdem!

    Wir fanden die Tour sehr schön und abwechslungsreich. Allerdings sind gerade die Übergänge an den Scharten durchaus anspruchsvoll und an vielen Stellen mit Drahtseil gesichert. Bei schlechtem Wetter nicht zwingend zu empfehlen, besonders die Roßkarscharte. Ich würde die Tour daher eher als schwer einstufen.
