Exposed section of the trail from Kreuzkogel to Riffl

Highlight • Trail

Partly secured by ropes (5) - you should be sure-footed and have a good head for heights.
Definitely a recommended, magnificent climb with fantastic views.

Attention: on the climb up the riffel there are steel ropes missing in some places and the way is a bit exposed. Dizziness and sure-footedness important. With a bit of concentration but well feasible.

You'll need your hands to scramble to the summit a bit—it's fun finding your own way.
Once at the top, you're very close to the Admont Reichenstein, and the view from here is magnificent.
