L. Vodháňel - J. Janků (1954): The ascent starts in the right part of the north face with a difficult crack to a small ledge (belay loop). Further along the crack, we proceed via a "sokolík" (chimney-like formation) to an oblique ledge, along which we move a few steps to the left. Then slightly diagonally up to the right and along an open corner up a rather smooth wall to the 1st ring. From there, we descend slightly lower and cross a narrow footbridge to the left edge to the 2nd ring. We then climb directly up to a triangular hold, where we slightly turn left. A little higher up, we return to the original direction and continue along the right edge of the "belly" (good holds behind the edge) to the 3rd ring. From the ring, we cross left onto an overhanging rock block and along a shallow vertical groove, we climb directly to the "small hourglasses". From these hourglasses, along a horizontal ledge to the left, we reach the "large hourglasses", where we can safely belay the second climber. From there, we continue about three steps to the left and up a smooth wall until below an overhanging small wall, which we already bypass slightly to the right onto the sub-summit balcony. From the balcony, along the crack on its right side, we complete this rewarding ascent.
