The view in the morning is probably more spectacular, but the evening views are truly beautiful as well. What is even more important, that it was really peacefull and quite, we and our guide were the only people on the mountain so we could really enjoy the views and the serenity. In the mornings there are up to 600 people on the mountain, which could probably feel more like a market. The guide Sari was really perfect and made the experience unforgetable”
