Unfortunately, it is more than a difficult hike.
The final climb to the
two peaks is particularly challenging.
The climb is not the problem though. If you make a serious mistake on the descent, you die. Just in July of this year, someone had a fatal accident.
The rock is very brittle and the steep terrain is very gravelly.
So be careful where you reach and step. Slipping or stumbling can end up 200m below.
Considering it is a relatively easy mountain, many people have lost their lives there. In my opinion, a helmet is compulsory.
In the future, it will be more difficult to get up there rather than easier.

Never climb before April. The snow and ice are still too high there. It is not possible without suitable hiking boots. There can be life-threatening passages for sneaker tourists. No climbing skills are required, but there are places that are difficult and require a lot of physical effort. There is no via ferrata on the route, but there are a few ladders and stairs.

For the ascent of the Säuling sure-footedness and vertigo are required. Several tightrope secured passages with easy climbing in the maximum first degree of difficulty are to master the ascent and descent of the Säuling. In addition, there is usually busy hiking here.
