60m, 3 pitches. An old classic. Some of the neighbouring bolts cross the route so this is more of a mixed climb unless ignored.

P1 Climb the initial broken crack to the RIGHT of Rettopp. Note that the guidebook incorrectly shows the route starting to the left of this route. Break left at the top of the crack towards the left facing dieder. Climb the dieder as far as the roof and then make some delicate traverse moves right towards an eventual good ledge from where the belay stance is easily reached.

P2 Climb the rightwards leading ramp and make an awkward move around the edge of the roof. Continue upwards, briefly deviating leftwards before moving back rightwards, until the small withered tree and isolated peg are reached. From here make the exposed traverse leftwards, into the back a recess (peg) and onwards to the good belay platform.

P3 Climb the corner for a couple of metres to the obvious line of holds leading rightwards. Traverse right as far as the hanging arête, then continue up the arête to belay at the large tree at the top.
