Although it does not end on a summit and despite there being some roads and buildings around, it is a very nice, easy and well-equipped route. The rock is impeccable, which is rare for a route at this level, of this length. In addition, there are no grassy slopes and ledges. Most of it may be very simple "slab climbing on all fours", but the route follows an obvious line of features and cracks, here and there avoiding or overcoming steep sections and breaks, bringing pleasant variety to the ascent. The approach to these typical Grimsel slabs is short and sweet. An easy descent path leads from the top right back to the dam at Räterichboden. The route is a bit further from the road than other lines.
