550m.
The obvious ridge starting from the Hohen Gaif to the Hochblassen. A classic ridge in the Wetterstein. Several sections of UIAA 3+, two abseils (50 meter rope necessary), and a lot of exposure. Some bolts and in-situ gear can be found, especially in the harder sections, however, the easier sections should be soloed in order to save time. Combined with the approach, long descent, lack of escape routes and lack of water, this is a serious undertaking that should only be attempted in good weather.
* This newly updated climb is waiting to be checked by the crag moderator.

βeta: Beware at the first abseil point you will come across two rings, the first one of which is wrong. The correct one is about 10 meters further. We used the first one and abseiled off the side of the ridge onto a slab beneath an overhang. It´s sketchy to get back on to the ridge from here. | βeta? | |
