Approach: The route starts about 300m left of the “Hungarian Route” where the slab ends into a big gully. Climb two easy pitches (possibly unroped) for about 70m to a ledge situated 15m down and left of a prominent chimney. The chimney is at the left of the upper part of the slab, and has a wide vertical crack through it. Climb chimney for about 30m (well protected) to big ledge/terrace from which there is also access (left), back to the gully, then up the steep slab for 8m to the top. Descent: Walk right for about 150m to the top of the “Hungarian route”, then rappel two pitches on fixed bolts.
