This multi-pitch ascent, graded 7+/8-, plunges you into a world of raw alpine beauty and solitude, far from the more frequented climbing areas. The climb is renowned for its excellent, mostly solid limestone, offering sustained technical pitches that demand precision, strength, and a cool head. Expect varied climbing – from intricate face sections to exposed cracks and steep walls – culminating in breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding peaks. It's an adventurous and rewarding undertaking for experienced climbers seeking a significant challenge and an immersive experience in a wild, forgotten corner of the mountains. Descent is typically via rappels.
