Great path to find yourself...is really fun up to the board fork. Experience on the mountain with sure-footedness and a head for heights is a must. Little committed and therefore really little going on there.

I planned this climbing trip entirely by myself for my buddies and me. Planned were the Schützensteig KS and the Laxersteig KS. At the parking lot, the surprise: my brilliant guys didn't even look at the tour and had no equipment with them. So: re-planning was announced! But in the end, it was mega relaxed and easy-going.

Otherwise nice

A very beautiful but strenuous tour that requires sure-footedness and stamina. The view throughout the tour is the absolute reward for all the effort.
