The ascent on the summer path is steep and arduous but short. It is often used by pedestrians, which is why this route is often icy. Otherwise, the route is easy. If conditions are not good or there is little snow, it is better to ascend along the described descent route (on the ski slope).

Tolle Tour, lang und anstrengend, aber sehr schön. Im Frühjahr am besten noch in der Dunkelheit losgehen, da sonst der Schnee oben weich und schwer wird.

Super Tour! Der Aufstieg durchs Skigebiet ab Hausbergbahn ist nicht wirklich lohnend aber eine sportliche Herausforderung. Achtung bei der Abfahrt. Die gezeigte Route führt durch ein Wildschongebiet.
Schneebedingungen sind zur Zeit ziemlich gut.
