Very nice hike, especially in sunny weather. Beautiful scenery around every corner. Please be aware though that it took us (inexperienced hikers) more than 5 hours to complete this hike, not 3. The western part of the roundtrip is very steep and dangerous, consider turning back the same way when you reach the final bridge.

Sure-footedness and good shoes are a must. It goes up and down over 25° in places. That on rooty forest floor, rubble, smooth stone, meadow, mud, wooden planks and and and. But the view makes up for everything.
A good basic condition is definitely an advantage for the round!
