If you're only planning a one-day hike to the Würzjoch, I recommend the western approach from Brixen, St. Andrä. The approach from Lüsen is definitely worth the extra climb as an alternative. The gradient is undoubtedly very steep for much of the way, but I didn't see the 18-19% mentioned here, at least not on my Wahoo today. The biggest challenge lies in the first half, which is always an advantage in my opinion. The road surface varies greatly from "good" to "disastrous." Traffic was light, so you're mostly alone. (August, peak season) And I don't want to offend anyone, but due to a lack of transportation while on vacation, I (46 years old, averagely "talented" at best) rode up on a rental road bike (11-32 cassette) from the local bike shop (10 kg) without having to dismount. Go for it!!
