I crossed the river near the house and turned left along the river into the valley.
Please don't do that. After a 5km descent, a section of the path is missing, and you have to climb very steeply up the mountain and slide down the other side on your backside with your bike. A bit dangerous. Unfortunately, the sign indicating that this is a dead end is only halfway down. Since I didn't want to go back up, the detour was a bit adventurous and dangerous.

I had already planned to do it last year, but it was always too hot. This morning at 7:50 a.m. I tried. I wasn't sure if I/we would manage it. But the weather was good and we reached the summit plateau at 12:45 p.m. It was an emotional moment for me. The view was fantastic. It was freezing cold in …

long and tiring route, the first part steeper, more challenging in the intermediate section, gentler and more gradual from the hill to the summit. The path, not always well defined, is lost at times due to landslide sections. The route is very popular and almost completely without shade, so it is preferable on cooler days. The destination is a super …

A challenging climb requires good fitness and hiking boots. I recommend bringing enough water for the day, hiking poles, and a flashlight to explore the interior of the fort. The effort is rewarded with a breathtaking 360-degree view. The valley is very arid, with very few plants, flowers, and wildlife.

We've been talking about climbing Chaberton for a while, and we haven't been there in years. The ideal route would be to do the loop by climbing up the via ferrata, but I'm still injured and can't do it, so we'll go up and down the same path.
A freezing wind was blowing at the top, so we didn't stay …

Km and time completely wrong, due to app malfunction.
The difference in altitude, on the other hand, is correct! 😎
