Difficulty
5.10 / A1
Route
From Italy with love is a pleasant, pure trad climb. While the difficulties are to be found in the first two pitches, the remainder of the climb tackles 5.6 - 5.8 terrain to reach the crest and then follow the normal route to the summit.
Descent
From the summit a 25/30 meter abseil down the east face leads to a terrace. Follow the line of ascent downwards, past easy scrambles and some rappels, to reach a crest. From here follow cairn markers past granite boulders down to the pass. The campsite always remains within view. Notes
5.10 max, one A1 section on pitch 2 while exiting the roof, aid used due to terrible rope drag. Possible to climb free without great problems.
