Rockfax Description
II, 200m. A great, if not short, climb that works perfectly as an afternoon route after walking to the hut. To start, follow grassy ledges to the base of the route.
1) 5b, 40m. Follow cracks to the left of a large detached flake and then ledges left to a corner. Climb this to a belay.
2) 6a, 40m. Climb a crack system left of the belay, passing a small roof.
3) 6b+, 55m. Climb directly above the belay and enter a chimney that gives you access to the ridge and belay of Le Gateau de Riz.
4) Either abseil off from here or continue up Le Gateau de Riz. © Rockfax
