Description
These are actually two routes established by local climbers, one in top of the other to the main summit of Três Pontões.
The first route (bottom part - first two pitches) follows a beautiful vertical crack system.
The second (upper three pitches) is a technical face climb on crystals to the summit.
To reach the base of this route you have to climb the first three pitches of Inferno na Torre.
The route starts at a wide crack in front of the 4th pitch of Inferno na Torre.

2P - Beautiful finger to hands crack to an horizontal crack. Bolted anchors. 5.11, 30m.
3P - From here pro is only bolts. Small pitch with delicate faceclimbing on small crystals to bolted anchors. 5.10b/c, 8m.
4P - Technical faceclimb on crystals zigzag following the bolts. 5.10b/c, 25m.
5P - Faceclimb up on crystals to a slab and then to the summit. 5.10b/c, 30m.
