Always open. From here on, you'll need sturdy footwear and a head for heights, as the path is narrow in places. However, it's still manageable, thanks in part to the steel cables in the exposed areas.

Mountaineering

From the Hinterautalstraße you can cross the Isar and the Gleirschbach over two bridges and thus walk back to Scharnitz on the more interesting southern side of the Isar.
