Snow & conditions
Snow not assessedCurrent snow evidence is not available for this route. Missing data does not establish snow-free conditions. This route reaches 2789m, where seasonal snow may linger.
Route sections
Epic effort, estimated around 48h 51m moving time using a hike model: 12:00 min/km flat pace plus about 15h 14m for 8964m of climbing. Expect 16% steep-grade exposure.
Fuel & gear
Plan roughly 262 small fuel units, then adjust for weather, aid, and personal effort.
Surface
Surface classes from OpenStreetMap, matched to the line. Ways without a surface tag are classed by their road type, so this is an estimate.
Path difficulty, as tagged in OpenStreetMap
- T1 hiking: 9.7 km
No difficulty tag on 73.6 km of path or track: unknown, not easy.
The SAC hiking scale mappers give each path. It is not a check of exposure, the weather or snow on the day.
On roads with traffic: 1.3 km in 2 stretches (the longest 855 m). Roads of class tertiary or bigger in OpenStreetMap; crossings and stretches under 100 m are not counted.
