1/2 days with an overnight stay at Similaunhütte. As we had some spare time, we decided to climb Finailspitze. Following our GPX track (from outdooractive) we ascended via the north face. Turns out, this ascent route is sparsely marked and features some II-III scrambling. The descent via the eastern ridge was much easier to follow.
