The Leiterjöchl can be recommended with reservations. For experienced mountaineers, the section is a really nice excursion with a challenging rope-secured climb at the end. For occasional mountain hikers like me it was quite a challenge. Holla the forest fairy, during the "climbing party" my pulse was already beating.
Everything went and went well, but nothing for inexperienced or occasional hikers. There are too few rope-insured places for that.
But the view at the end was great.

The Leiterjöchl is a fantastic crossing over the Lechtal Alps. On the north side, the final section involves fixed ropes through rocky terrain. A firm grip is required here, but it's manageable. However, there are a few more exposed sections in the steep scree afterwards, without fixed ropes. Komoot rates this section as T3, but I would rate it more like T4.
