Itinerary description

Incredible trail with great scenic views. Some detour were made from the yellow trail to get closer to the glacier.

But be aware, the beginning of the trail climbs smoothly on a large trail and is really easy, but the towards the end you have to cross a big ravine and can be difficult for some people. The last descent to the road is also really really steep. A walking pole can help.
