About the route

One way from Gaflei along the Fürstensteig to the Gafleisattel, over the Kuegrat, the Garsellikopf and the Drei Schwestern, then down via the Sarojasattel and the Gafadurahütte to Planken. Secured rocky paths and exposed ridge sections; surefootedness and a head for heights required.
