Rockfax Description
A very pleasant pitch. Climb steep ground between Direct Route and Kleine Rinne to gain the easier-angled upper face. Climb direct to a short diagonal crack and move up right to the edge of an overhang. Take the thin left-trending crack to ledges and finish up a break on the right. © Rockfax

βeta: Fairly steady climbing, but not easy... and it\'s bold! For me, it's the upper runout that is much more unnerving than the starting runout (you can get a good nut in a narrow crack between E1 and VS, meaning there is only a few moments with groundfall potential). Great climb but I wouldn't rush back and it requires steadiness in the grade and style IMO.
