This often overlooked sector offers great climbing and a stunning view towards Arginonta bay and its emerald coloured water. The sun hits quite early, leaving only one very good 7b in the shade until around 2pm. Although especially attractive to climbers operating in the 7a+ to 8a range, visiting this sector is worth it for some very good 6b and 6c climbing too.

The base of the wall in the left part of this sector is narrow, steep and without a fixed rope.

Sustained climbing with the crux on a grippy tufa pipe. Tons of endurance or some kneepads are helpful.

An unobvious and tough start, then raw power on open pinches and undercuts. Bulging orange and brown rock in the second half.

An intermediate anchor makes 18 m of Patsamama climbable at 7b and was installed by Hannes Webhofer in 2017.

Start up a tufa-covered wall and go easy on the two remaining stalactites, before going all in to reach and tackle the pumpy single tufa. Short but sustained. Easier for the tall.

Gets 2 hours of extra shade (2-3pm) compared to most other routes here.

Still a project (2023). Grade unconfirmed.

Steep and pumpy on a juggy flake and one balancy part towards the top.
