55m, 2 pitches.
Filo de Chirchilla is the original 'Razor's Edge'. Some disagree with the rating because of the cutting rock, but it is a classic of the less than overhanging grey limestone variety and definitely a must do route for climbers curious about karst climbing. Bring 12 quickdraws.
Pitch 1 - 6A+ (25 M, 11 Bolts) - Begin on the right end of the base, just before the vegetation. Climb the clean face and traverse left before you reach the plants. The anchors are to the right of the small tree on the ledge.
Pitch 2 - 6A (30 M, 10 Bolts) - This is the route's signature pitch and climbs the exposed arete to the top, but the last few metres are runout. To descend, walk down the back of the buttress following an improbable trail. Alternatively, rappel the route, 50 metres to the ground or 25 metres to the first belay station.
