βeta: Fixed gear is adequate, if you\'re comfortable at the grade and don\'t mind a runout on easy sections, though some of it is showing its age. A couple of extenders came in handy. UKC description very wrong. Route is 6a overall. 12 pitches going at 3c, 4c, 5b, 4b, 4c, 4c, 5a, 5c, 4b, 4c, 6a, 3c. Alternative direct routes on P1 (6a), and P5-6 (4c, 5b). As others note, the approach is tricky to find. The approach description in the Versante Sud guide is accurate if you follow it carefully. Blue and white plastic marks the way from I Missili, where the turn off from the main path looks really improbable. The path is marked on OpenStreetMap as \'Via Lunga Trail\'. | ||
