One of the most spectacular potholes on the Pfunderer Höhenweg. Once you have squeezed his body through the very narrow crevice, waiting for a vertical view in 30 meters depth. Provided with a few iron treads as well as an iron chain, you descend in dizzy heights downhill. For hikers from 1.70 meters no problem, including you have to stretch a bit;)

Hiking

Gaisscharte, is the absolute highlight between the bivouac and the Edelraut hut! After climbing over huge blocks, we see the ascent through the saddle, which first inspires us with respect! I look through the gap and the respect increases. Approx. 30 m down, and off you go. With concentration and body tension, we master the descent without any problems.
