- Length — 600 m
- Elevation gain — 300 m
- Ascent time — 4–5 h
The approach from the Kyrgyz-Ata alp camp (no group size limit) to the Joldzhilga pass is described in Route 18.
Descend from the pass down a 150–200-meter talus-filled couloir onto the South Joldzhilga Glacier. Cross the glacier to the right and upwards (closed crevasses) and go under the north-eastern slopes of the Agidel summit, located in the left corner of the upper South Joldzhilga Glacier.
From the glacier, after traversing the bergschrund, ascend along a 300–400-meter ice-snow slope followed by easy, broken 30–40-meter rocks to the summit of Agidel. From the Joldzhilga pass, it will take 2–2.5 hours.
