    Hiking

    Definitely NOT a VF/KS unless you are an absolute beginner, just a direct (partly secured) T2+ path up to Hoher Kasten, which is well worth taking for the views; you can come down the normal way on the other side.

    This is not really a via ferrata ...... the only place where you can do some scrambling is if you follow the path that is secured, climb down over the rocks ....... but that's not all and still the way around a lot more interesting than the all around and only a shortcut ;-).

    It's a very cool, well-secured path. Certainly not a via ferrata. However, it is also not suitable for everyone, so there is still an easier way around.
