35m. Justifyably famous. An unrelenting pitch up the central line of tufas that sports a hard start and a pulse-enhancing finish. There are thankfully a few good shakeouts along the way.

A great holiday tick with some awesome moves and an easily bagged 8a if that's you're thing. Definitely deserves Top 50 status. It's all about finding and using those shakeouts - according to locals there are apparantly 7 no-hands rests, though I only found/used three (which was plenty). Wicked good fun!
