Proud arete, rap in west below just summit, run out start on RH side of arete traversing into the LH crack at 5m to gain gear. Continue direct up crack and arete 20m, following crack as it traverses right to jug then mantle. Highly technical climbing of increasing steepness with good pro on superb rock.

Far right of Berchvaise face, routes begin at the top of the gully.

Access is by walking north, beneath the Bechervaise Face, to the col formed by the summit block and the pinnacle. Start: At the prominent right-facing corner 10m down the gully below the north col.

A serious undertaking, same access as the north face route and start. Traverse progressively rightwards for 55m (14) with some runouts to grassy ledge and belay. Traverse 10m right then 7m (16) on small gear up to belay just under the Arete flake system. Follow the steep flakes with expiring biceps and confidence up and right to gain the exposed arete (crux) 25m (21) belay with whatever you can find at the ledge. Up 30m (10) to start of the slab, then 70m (3) scramble to the summit.
