Not an easy trail!! Maybe the Swiss difficulty standards are different from the rest of the world. The first half is a very steep elevation, sometimes thorough difficult and narrow terrain. Overall it took us 7 hours of walking including stops. The views are amazing and the trail itself is not bad but I the app difficulty rating is very misleading.
