βeta: The first pitch (6b+) is super good but comes as a bit of a (warm up) shock and would be 6c+ anywhere else.

βeta: Great route that could do with a bit more traffic - most of it is real quality, no polish, nicely bolted and good on sunny days because it is shady. 52 ans does not really describe the access. Go north along the cliff for about 50m from the belvedere, looking for a tatty fixed rope that leads down (a very short distance) to the first ab station. On the second ab, keep your eyes peeled for a bolt by a spiky jug - first person down needs to clip this so they can reach the belay, otherwise they will be hanging in space, then last person down takes out the draw and gets pulled in by their mate. Not remotely complicated but would be a pain to miss it
