Rockfax Description
Start as for the last route, but step right and access the arete from the ramp. The final precarious section is reachy and harrowing, especially for the short. Wires in the creaky flake really shouldn't be relied upon. © Rockfax

βeta: Very pleasant, the crux is easy if you're tall, but the gear is a bit dubious
