An altogether harder offering for those who prefer long and hard instead of just long! Not to be underestimated - 24 pitches, full in the sun with a lot of fairly tough face climbing along the way. Start 30m right of Les enfants on the other side of the goulotte (water-worn gully). The route is rigged for abseil all the way from the East Ridge (top of p16 ) but this is not recommended in bad weather. Beyond p16 abseiling would be extremely difficult in any weather.
