Want to spice up your hikes with some climbing (Klettersteig) but always afraid to do so? This route is exactly what you are looking for.

Some requirements:

- You need to be a generally fit and good hiker with sure footing

- You shouldn't be afraid of heights!

- Good hiking boots with solid grip (Bergschuhe Typ A or Typ B  should be enough)


To the tour:

- This is a beginner-friendly hike;  you will not neat any extra gear (like a ferrata set) besides a helmet. Technically, a helmet is not even needed, but the head is so important that out of safety, I am recommending it here.

Other equipment like a harness or ferrata security kit or ropes will not be needed. 


I self-designed this route and uploaded it on Komoot, just in case you want to use the built-in Komoot navigation:
