    Yes, the trail is significantly more challenging than the Schützensteig. Combining the two is definitely worthwhile. However, the trail should be attempted in dry conditions, not in wet conditions. The approach/descent to the beginning of the trail is generally unpleasant, and almost dangerous in wet conditions. Why were ropes only installed at the lower end? And the trail itself is significantly more difficult in wet conditions. The slippery rocks combined with wet shoe soles make for less secure footing. In dry conditions, it's a beautiful via ferrata.
