Info with dogs 🐾 Anyone who can safely carry their dog on their shoulders can climb this route. It looks spectacular at first, but for experienced mountain dogs, it's not an insurmountable obstacle. We climbed with climbing harnesses and safety harnesses, and webbing slings in case we need to be secured in between.

Contrary to the information further up the hiking trail, this hut is not open all year round. Otherwise, it is a nice place to take a break.
