In my opinion this length is the “hardest”. The start from the belay station is weird, especially with three people. Furthermore, the move to the next belay station is again tricky.

The guidebook mentioned this length as 5c+. However, there are plenty of jugs. You can pull them and the “crux” is done. In my opinion the fourth length is more tricky and therefore harder.

We climbed the route in a three-man team and started by sunrise. The route is great, especially if you combined it with the abseiling over the Grande Grotta as we did. I already climbed the route in 2019. Compared to 2019 some parts are more polished but still okay. However, I was surprise that some flakes sounded hollow. I wonder if these flakes still exist in another four years.

Very nice. Truely flowy with juicy tufas over the bulge. Sweet moves and great holds with some rests. In the fairly easy end your flash is easily ruined if you follow the bright non-sensical chalk, leading you way off track. Thanks Liuba. 1d/2t
