Description
The route starts from the base of the Rubicon sector and unfolds in two main parts.
The first section includes 9 pitches (a total of 91 bolts and 9 belay stations) up to the ledge, which serves as a natural resting point.
The second section follows, with 8 pitches (90 bolts and 8 belay stations) leading to the top.
The line ascends solid, vertical limestone with technical sections, slabs, and small overhangs. Its character is that of a sport multi-pitch route, with good protection and a continuous climbing rhythm.
The quality of the belay stations is excellent (double bolts).
The entire route is ideal for those seeking a long sport climbing experience with consistent difficulty and beautiful views from the ledge over the valley.
