    Alpine is a bit big in my opinion… but sturdy shoes are advisable

              Very nice narrow path 👍

                It is difficult to sum up the Neckarsteig as a highlight. However, this alpine section definitely stands out and is probably the most technically demanding section. You should wear suitable footwear, especially when it is wet.

                  Okay, a bit challenging and not entirely accessible, but certainly not alpine!
