    The views and finally the Schrecksee make up for the somewhat steeper climb

      You should bring a bit of fitness and sure-footedness with you if you want to climb to the Schrecksee. You should also have the right footwear with you. I was a little surprised that some people try to climb in sandals, trainers or sneakers 😀. At the latest on the way back, it will certainly be slippery and painful
