Q: What distinguishes easy summit tours from difficult summits?

Easy summit tours, such as to the Dorfberg or Joelspitze , usually have well-marked and technically easy paths. The gradients are moderate and no alpine knowledge is required. Difficult peaks, on the other hand, often require surefootedness, a head for heights and experience in dealing with rough terrain, such as scree fields or steep passages. While easy peaks are also suitable for families, challenging peaks are often only recommended for experienced mountaineers.

The most beautiful vantage points are at the top of the mountains. However, it is not just reserved for bold summiteers to enjoy this exhilarating experience. Many Tyrolean panoramic peaks also welcome leisure hikers. They are technically easy to tackle, do not demand high athletic performance and some are also suitable for families with children. However, surefootedness and a basic level of fitness are also required for easy summit hikes.
