A stunning view. Not exactly easy in winter, though. Spikes and gaiters are essential, and you can't really see the path; you can only guess where you're going. But the view from the top is absolutely worth it.

The view from the top is fantastic, but I would not classify the tour as easy but as medium. The path is hardly marked and at the beginning it is easy to go wrong without the app. In addition, the path is quite steep and almost exclusively very rocky, in the upper area it can also be very muddy. I don't know how the rating comes about? I find them misleading (personal opinion).

Hello fellow hikers,

I have to agree with the previous comment. The trail is really not easy. It's very rocky, steep, and unpaved. You're more or less scrambling up the mountain, so you should definitely wear sturdy shoes.

However, the hike was fun and the views are fantastic.
