Approach: The route starts at crack 20 right from “Geissenpeter” and 20m left from “Papa GPI”.

Description: Only rock (stoppers) and friends up to #1 requered. On the crux pitch (4) protection (2 pitons and 2 bolts) left in place. Rock (except p7 and p8) excellent! Route very steep and “compatible” in beauty and difficulty to some famous routes in the Dolomites. It is possible to join “Geissenpeter” after 6 pitches by traverse left (VI-, poorly protected) and then up thin crack (VI+).
