    This is actually the only section that is a bit demanding then it is more comfortable on the alvier ...

      This section is not to be underestimated. I descended it. It's a narrow path in a couloir that continues quite exposed.
      Although the couloir is very well secured with ropes and a ladder, it's still very steep. A head for heights and surefootedness are essential on this section.

        Dogs can go through next to the ladder, possibly with some help depending on the dog.
