The path over the Bleiki ridge is marked in blue/white. However, there are no particularly exposed areas and no alpine experience is required. There is a small ladder to climb and there are also some harmless but cool scrambling areas to tackle...but these are not particularly demanding. However, particularly when it is wet and there is residual snow, one area (a shaded and slightly exposed area, not extremely narrow, but the abyss is still quite large) could quickly become tricky and should only be approached with caution or a different route should be chosen.
The view from the Bleiki ridge is beautiful and the path is highly recommended. Ps.: The Bleiki ridge is actually called the Rätzelenweg and leads from the Bleiki ridge over the Rätzelenweg to the Musenalp.

Great views of Lake Lucerne. Although not an alpine way, but nevertheless one should be free from giddiness and sure-footed. Beware of Nåsse.
