    Hiking

    The last pathless meters to the summit with easy scrambling

    Hiking

    Definitely not for beginners, and only when it's dry. The pathless climb to the summit cross should only be attempted with suitable equipment and a good sense of surefootedness. I found it even more dangerous than the grade itself, where you can hold on to the existing rope very well. I would definitely recommend a helmet. Everyone has their own idea of via ferrata equipment; personally, I didn't miss it with the few meters of rope, but it doesn't hurt either.

    Narrow, steep and very beautiful path to the Hörnle. Path is easy to find although it is an unmarked trail (T3). Nothing for beginners.
