It is a technical and demanding route, ideal for those with experience in ice climbing and alpine conditions.
It is important to note that, due to the technical nature of this route, a high level of physical preparation, mountaineering experience and knowledge of ice climbing are required. In addition, it is recommended to have adequate equipment and be accompanied by specialized guides who can provide guidance and security throughout the tour.
