Description Suggest change

The Monster Wall proper is steep, with some good harder routes in the middle and flanked on the sides with easier routes.

See the
Monster wall overview. (with climbs #1&2 being on (F) The Bull Horn - the buttress immediately right of Monster Wall)

Getting There Suggest change

Follow the approach directions for UEF. Once you're at the stream after dropping down into the valley from the ridge, head downstream, cross the stream on a nice footbridge, and continue downstream for about 50 yards. (F) The Bull Horn is the first major wall you'll encounter. Just beyond that is the Monster Wall.
