OpenStreetMap tags the surface on 96% of this route; the rest is classed by its road type, an estimate.

Path difficulty, as tagged in OpenStreetMap

  • T1 hiking: 7.3 km
  • T2 mountain hiking: 22.2 km

No difficulty tag on 54.5 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: 1.2 km in 4 stretches (the longest 400 m). Roads of class tertiary or bigger in OpenStreetMap; crossings and stretches under 100 m are not counted.
