    On the ascent to the Barrhorn, the path leads through the Gässi - a section classified as T3 - where sure-footedness and a head for heights should not be foreign words. The section is secured with wire ropes.

      Steep descent. Is well secured with wire ropes.

        Nice section.. a bit more challenging than the rest of the way up the Barrhorn
