300m, 10 pitches. Great ridge climb and thoroughly recommend as a gentle introduction to the area or first alpine route. Perfect rock, great exposure, what more could you ask for. It is possible to carry on along the ridge to the next peak (info in the hut). Otherwise the standard descent is well marked (red) on the west side of the ridge, there are 4 abseil points but they can all be downclimbed. Plasir Ost suggests you could stash your boots at the start of the route, I would recommend not to do this as the descent would be uncomfortable in rockshoes and the route is fine in boots anyway.
