The ridge of the Marwees is an alpine hiking trail (blue / white). You have to be sure-footed and free from giddiness. There are a few places where you have to scramble.

I personally needed to overcome a lot of courage to do this ridge walk because I still have a bit of a fear of heights... but because you have to focus on the path, it went surprisingly well. Especially the first time, I would definitely only go in dry weather so that the path isn't too slippery... afterward, everyone can judge for themselves...
The places where you have to scramble a bit are the trickier places. You have to be very careful to make sure every step is in place... but there are also some slightly wider places so that you can just enjoy the fantastic view.translated by•August 10, 2019
