Lion King offers varied crack and slab climbing.

The first pitch is relatively committed, whereby crack and trad climbing experience is an advantage. From the halfway point there is a beautiful slab up to the belay.

The second pitch is much easier and allows time to catch your breath and enjoy the climb.

The third length starts with strong, overhanging climbing moves, but is well secured where necessary.

The jewel of the line is the fourth length. A steep zigzagging crack leads perfectly through the overhanging and airy nose. Belay everything yourself.

It is worth climbing the line to the end viaMaja Nebbia.
