The tour is listed as moderate on Komoot. In my opinion, that's incorrect. Hikers who a) haven't climbed any vertical 8-meter-high sections before and b) have to ascend or descend without via ferrata equipment, despite the available rungs... this should be rated as black or difficult. Don't get me wrong—I think it's okay for non-hikers, but I believe others will reach their limits here. 🤨
