Itinerary description

I listed the trek as difficult because of the hike to Traweng (1981m elevation at the summit) that is not long but quite vertical and physically demanding though (plus it´s been really windy and cold up there at the time we´ve been there). Skip the mountain hike and you get an easy (yet long) walk around the lakes.
