The Mittellegi Ridge is probably the most popular route on the Eiger. It is a fantastic steep knife edged ridge offering excellent climbing with little or no objective danger. 4 to 8 hours from Mittellegi Hut

βeta: First out of the hut at 4.30, summit for 7, another 2.5 hours to traverse the south ridge. Great outing from start to finish, nice to have a look at the summit as time in reconnaissance is never wasted.
