Itinerary description

It will take you approximately 4-6 hours to get to the summit. It will take an additional 3-5 hours to get back. Especially the people that haven't trained specifically to climb such a rocky trail will need the full time (if not more). It is therefore advised to start in time to not have to descend in the dark. It is not so much a difficult trail, but rahter a long (exhausting) one.

Moreover take plenty of water (>3 liters per person) and sun scream. You are going to need it!
