Really nice route with a couple of nice climbing parts (e.g. stretching gaps and a overhang), incredible views of the lake from literally the side of the mountain

5/5
Accessible aux sportifs de niveau moyen avec un minimum d’aguerrissement, car certains passages peuvent s’avérer difficiles. Mais inoubliable!
