Hiking

What is NOT signposted from below (on the ravine or on signposts) that there are via ferratas. We wanted to go on the tour. We canceled at Gässele because we couldn't have made it in terms of time and conditions. When I stood there and saw what was still ahead of us, from Gässele to Entschenkopf.... and my daughter (14) got scared, we turned around. Back to the lakes. I think really experienced people should go further here. And no one with height or knee issues.

There have already been several fatal accidents on the gangle. This passage should not be underestimated.
