Exhausting tour with impressive panoramic views. Surefootedness and a head for heights are essential when climbing to the summit. The ascent to the Oberhüttensee needs surefootedness again. The effort is rewarded again with a nice view. The descent to the Ursprungalm goes over moors and through a stream bed. Waterproof shoes are recommended here.
