Not mentioned in AC guidebook but on Almageller hut info leaflet as a dashed yellow line. Follow painted route (yellow flashes) from hut to gain rocky ridge (bolts in initial section) and follow this on splendid, generally solid slabs to join the SW ridge and final snow crest to the summit.

βeta: An excellent route and day out when combined with the straightforward SE ridge decent. Worth PD+ if sticking to the apex of the ridge.

βeta: The well marked crux pitch up the ramp is worth grade 3 but is splendidly bolted.

βeta: This is a very fine route, well cleaned and way marked with outrageous efficiency, ie every few metres. It makes it possible a fine circular traverse of the mountain from Almageller using the popular south ridge as a descent. Strongly recommended.
