The road to the summit, located in the Alps, is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4x4 vehicle required. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Thunderstorm activity can quickly change unpaved roads to four-wheel-drive condition or make them impassable.

The lake is a basin of glacial origin. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). There are 2 mountain huts near the summit.
