Difficulty
Physical effort, technical demands, trail conditions, ascent and duration — this says nothing about exposure.
Fear of heights
Exposure only: drop-offs, narrow paths on steep slopes, traverses, bridges and ladders. Assessed independently of the difficulty grade.
Why this rating?
The route descends more than 1,100 metres from Längfluh beside glacier terrain and over a moraine. The official description does not identify exposed secured passages, but the steep alpine descent and proximity to glacial terrain can be uncomfortable for people with fear of heights.
