Hemos hecho la cara sur, y se trata de una vía ferrata bastante chula y con pocas dificultades. Se puede ir con niños, pero estos tienen que ser activos. Nosotros fuimos con nuestro hijo de 8 años, y al final hubo que ayudarle a pasar los enganches... pero porque el dia anterior habíamos subido al pico de los tres señores y andaba algo cansado.
