This route offers us between 480 and 500 m of positive elevation gain. It can be divided into two sections. The first, from the beginning to the boulders, is a bit demanding, but noble. From the Virgin to the summit, the slope changes dramatically and becomes extremely demanding. This route requires very good physical condition and is recommended for hikers with some experience.
