Nice smaller peak for the whole family. When you take the Schlossalm lift, you immediately catch your eye. A bit of caution is still an advantage when climbing. We saw people trying to get to the summit with flip-flops. Better not! The last stretch to the summit cross in particular requires a little freedom from shrinkage.

The summit is easily accessible and doable for the whole family. There are no crowds in the mornings or afternoons after 2 or 3 p.m.
