The ascent over the sickle and the descent towards Eriz over the fall ridge are both very steep. In places very exposed and along narrow paths along the rock. Surefootedness is a must and when it is wet it can be dangerously slippery! Once you have reached the top, a wonderful tightrope walk follows.

Wonderful ridge path over the seven stallions.
The ascent and descent, e.g. over the sickle, is not entirely without and requires surefootedness and a head for heights.
If you are up there, with a little luck, you will be greeted by ibexes and have a wonderful view of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.
