Heartiest congratulations . One question: how is the coating? Lots of stones, very compact gravel? I plan to do it in Gravel, but I don't know yet in which direction.

The W11 mountain station is definitely a _NONE_ "hiking highlight". It is only in operation in winter. There is no place to stop here. If so, you have to stop at Friedrichshütte or Alois-Günther-Haus.
