A unique "floral splendor" every year. Normally a very deep, muddy trail, but this year, thanks to the dry weather, it's not muddy and pleasant to hike. At 19°C and sunny, it's simply worth seeing.

A beautiful natural spectacle in these refreshing❄️ temperatures. As the Alpine Association points out that the trail is an alpine trail, I strongly recommend that you pack your crampons on your hike at this time of year. The trail is sometimes very slippery because of the snow and the "running wall".
