Great 360 degree view at the summit. The path from the Adler Lounge is steep, past the slope and, depending on the season, ends at the end over large boulders or some snow. A panoramic view of the Großglockner is already possible from below.

Worthwhile panoramic summit! A bit busier than other places due to the proximity to the cable cars, but not overcrowded. The way is partly crisp and not without reason rope-insured in parts. Sure-footedness and a head for heights are required. Also matching shoes.. we were out with our A\B boots, which was no problem when the weather was nice. But we met people in sneakers/street shoes who thought they could just climb up there from the Kals gondola... were then taught a better way, fortunately already on the first piece and not just where it could have been really dangerous.

We took the tour from the Kals mountain railway today in mid-September. The scree areas at the beginning and just before the top were challenging. The length of the route is absolutely doable and the view is truly breathtaking. It took us a little longer because we set a slow pace on the 'difficult' routes. It should be noted that you should really be sure-footed on the route and keep your nerve as some sections are really dangerous. Despite moderate visibility, this was one of the most beautiful hikes so far for us.
