After the early move right, I followed the rail left to its end, moving up to the next break using the arete for my left hand.

There is interest moving back right and up, also below the top where the holds are not quite as good as they look from below. Care required with ropes to reduce drag, which I failed to do well, leading to a bit of a heave at the top.

Good route, worth a star.
