To access the top via the normal route, you must move through then up the prayer crack, and then squeeze out the Thin Man's Crack to the ledge. If the squeeze is too tight, use the chimney. After exiting the crack onto the ledge, turn left and scramble up the large boulder. You'll find two belay chains up there for the routes on the southwest. Then, go back down the boulder towards the prayer crack and move towards the north side of the rock where you'll find a short but exciting little lead route bolted to help you to the very top of Kkungu Rock. Approximately 9m and 5 clips (20). Enjoy the view and wave to the school children.

Please be respectful of the local religious ceremonies. Please bolt at a minimum. To this point, we have only used stainless steel expansion bolts which should last for several generations. If you bolt, please only use top quality equipment.
