    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.

    Short via ferrata to the summit. But it can also be bypassed.

    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 ;-).
