The "easiest" normal route on a pinnacle. Thanks to orange markings, good route finding, rarely many people on the way, max III+ with the key section being the straddle just before the summit. 30 min approach, 3h ascent, 3h descent (partly abseiling)!
WARNING: at the key section, after the straddle, a "ledge" for further climbing has broken off! Without this ledge, a difficulty of 4+ would have to be overcome!!!!

From the start, the gully is laboriously climbed partly in scree, partly in easy climbing (max. 2) and briefly into the left gully. Before this gully steepens, traverse left on the upper ledge (wooden beam), zigzag upward and descend left to traverse a gully. Climb the gully (2) and continue on easy terrain to the wall. Climb the wall (briefly 3, then 2), then follow a exposed traverse to the right (2) slightly descending and cross the gorge. Upwards in a left bend over scree, past a notch and over a slab (2+) into a steep chimney (3+) to a belay at the ring band. Now traverse well about 100 m left along the ring band.
At a bright block, sharply right, ramp (1) up to another ledge. On this ledge, left (past the bivouac) to a cairn. The ascent turns right again, first over a slab, then on a narrow ledge around a pillar (slanting, slightly downward) to a chimney. Climb this (3) and over the adjacent wall to a belay. Traverse right on a ledge crossing a gully (2). Now climb a steep wall (3+). Then right into a gorge (2) or to the right of it (3) to the notch before the key section. Climb the wall on the right and with a bold straddle step (3+) to the left side and onto a ledge. Follow a ledge left to a short down climb (2) and traverse to a gully. Climb the gully (2) up to a notch and right a short steep wall (3+, possibly fixed rope) up. Over broken ground to a ledge with towers. On this (2) - interrupted by a straddle step - to the already visible summit.
