Tourism & Travel
German term or phrase: Plattenschuss
Este término aparece varias veces en la guía de senderismo que estoy traduciendo:

- Eine gute Stunde ab dem Sattel leitet uns der rot markierte Wanderweg über einen längeren **Plattenschuss**.

- Der Wanderweg steigt zunächst steil an und führt alsbald über teils leicht ausgesetzte **Plattenschüsse** und Felspassagen (I), meist am Kamm eines Felsbandes.

He visto fotos, pero no se me viene ninguna traducción a la cabeza.

¡Gracias de antemano por vuestra ayuda!

neutral  Vitaliy Rysyuk: Where did you conceive it from? Platte=metesa=table-land or plateau. Nothing in common with a ramp. It implies an even area up the mountains.
