This is a demanding extreme tour, which requires a high level of concentration, sure-footedness and very good orientation skills, even for experienced and skilled climbers, in unmarked, unclear and, over long stretches, very rugged terrain. However, if you have the mental and physical fitness for this, you will be rewarded with guaranteed solitude in a truly wild corner of the Ammergau Alps.
