Die Umrundung des Hochvogels sowie der Besuch des bekannten Schrecksees sind dabei nur zwei der Highlights. Mehrere der höchsten Wasserfälle Deutschlands (Etappe 5 und 6) erwarten den Wanderer genauso wie eine düstere Nordwand (Etappe 2), ein Berg, der sich spaltet (Etappe 5) sowie ausgedehnte Blumenwiesen und herrliche Panoramen.
