Very nice hiking trail, sure-footedness required everywhere, I love my sticks. The path on the left is secured by a rope for two short stretches and leads up in serpentines with few steps.

This tour where you can see 7 alpine lakes from different points is worthwhile. All 3 summit crosses visited offer a fabulous view. Since the stones are usually ground smooth, dry weather is to be awaited. We are pleasure hikers and needed twice the time with breaks etc.

A very beautiful hike for experienced hikers. The route is very adventurous and never boring, and at some stations you are rewarded with a breathtaking view. Dogs and people should be very sure-footed!
