Original route
Suitable for everyone from 12 years and up who wants a steep mountain hike with a little extra. No prior knowledge is required here. The route is grade B, with a couple of points grade C. Duration: 3-4 hours.
The south wall
This is a slightly longer and more demanding trip. The route has a common start with the original route and eventually enters Sørveggen. Suitable for you who have climbed via ferrata before or have other climbing experience, 12 years and up. The route is graded degree D / C. Duration: 3.5-4.5 hours.
