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?
A very long and strenuous historic mule-track ascent into high-alpine pass terrain. The official material shows the Bodmer suspension bridge in the Ägenetal but does not state a specific head-for-heights requirement; exposure is therefore rated moderate.
