Description

Stellar climbing on the best stone one can imagine. The hard pitches (3&4) can easily be aid-climbed without aiders (A0), the bolts have all been replaced. To free climb pitch 3, you have to do some detours away from the bolts. There is a lot of glorious 5.10 on this route. There are topos etc. on the hut.
To descend, either rap the route or go down the South Face and around the mountain.

Location

From the hut, head straight up to the base of the wall (15 min). The route starts on a ramp that leads from the base to the obvious pillar, to the left of which you find the orange overhang.
