My first solo trekking experience, and absolutely stunning! Can recommend it for beginners, too. What Eva mentioned, that drinking water might be sparse, is true, so try to camel up and collect water whenever you find it. Water filter is also recommended.
Have a look onto my Youtube video in german for a better impression of the path:

Great hiking trail that can be done in 5-7 days. Multiple cabins along the way, however a tent might be needed. It can be difficult to find drinking water, therefore the maps should be closely studied for possible sources along the way.
