The Felix Kuen via ferrata, which leads over the striking and panoramic Hundskopf, is quite exposed and relatively challenging in some short sections. Sure-footedness and a head for heights are essential for this short via ferrata. For the remaining sections of the route on the ascent, surefootedness and a head for heights are also necessary in some places.
