Notes and recommendations
This tour is difficult and demanding in sections (B/C via ferrata), so climbing experience is mandatory.
Though you can do without it (and I’d seen quite a few people going without it), I recommend wearing a helmet and a via ferrata set/harness from the Mittagsscharte on.
A big red dot painted on the rock marks a via ferrata section; the more difficult via ferrata sections are at the beginning, near the peak it gets a little easier.
