Some old pitons along the route, and a lot of old slings through hourglasses. Take: Slings, a set of nuts and some small friends.

Description:
You'll find this route just after Via Persephone and just before Via "La fuga dal Hades". It's a nice, easy route but with an alpine feel to it. Lots of hourglasses and pockets. Highlights: The second pitch is very long and a lot of fun. The third pitch has a fantastic 5a overhang with big jugs and a lot of air underneath you.

Join the trail just after completing the route and head right. It will take you back to the road.

Loved that second pitch! Rope drag on the last pitch - couldn't enjoy the perfect moves.
