Itinerary description
I had to leave the car a bit early due to a closed road and therefore the route extended by 10km. That´s the main reason I rate this as moderate, otherwise, if started at normal starting point I would rate it easy. It was cloudy and I couldn´t see the peak until just before I got there. It was just reaching above the clouds and to be there looking around and only seeing mountain peaks reaching through the clouds which actually looked more like a wool, was kind of surreal. Great reward for a long walk. Yes and it seems from the graph like two peaks but it´s actually not, I just had to go back since I forgot my sunglasses :)
