1000m. of ascent and a total of 1200m of VF. A tremendous route, first up a vast slab, then following a knife edge ridge to the summit of Punta Serauta. Slack cables all the way mean you have to clmb the rock whether you want to or not! *As of 2008 this route is officially closed. However many people still do it. It is worth taking a rope so you can pitch between sections of missing cable.

awfull condition .... large gaps between cables so as weather closed in we backed off as we wouldnt be able to see next cable.... bit gutted but the right decision

this is in a shocking state - many wires on slab are BROKEN or missing *requires* soloing some parts. Other wires are loose and very very dodgy. Its been closed since 2005/6 officically However its a great route and quite ok if you are used to scrambling and can handle the exposure/unprotected parts

Long and strenuous. Route is officially closed due to poor state of cabling.

A fantastic, epic day. Snow on the ridge slowed us down, got the cable car times wrong and thought we have to spend the night in the toilets. Ended up leading three grateful Germans to safety on a three hour descent
