Itinerary description
|
The trail begins to the left of the shelter door, I started recording about 100 meters later.
Looking at Point Lenana from the front, you have to go behind it to the left of the formation in front of the shelter, once you reach the area without vegetation you have to continue along the main path. Approximately 300 meters before the top you have to start doing some simple climbs until you find the last part of the via ferrata that comes from the opposite side that you climb.
The top is reached by the sailor's staircase of the via ferrata.
For other aspects, review the first part of the route: "Old Moses parking lot to Shipton's Camp".
I didn't record the descent to Shipton's Camp to save battery in the watch.
