Route 5

2B

The route passes along the right (SE) spur of the central wall of Paraghelmen.

There are two variants for the start of the route:

• from the base of the spur (60 m),
• via the cracks in the right part of the wall (40 m).

Both variants lead to the shoulder — a large horizontal ledge — R1. From the shoulder, 5–10 m along the right side of the spur and a small wall to approach under the cornice, which is passed on the right part. Then move along the inner corner to a small narrow ledge with a bollard — R2. From the ledge, move towards the chimney with a cork, and a stance behind it on the ledge.

Through the system of cracks, corners, and small difficult walls — exit to the pre-summit tower. From it, through a pass (!) 60 m to the yayla. The route is slightly stronger than via the left spur.

Time of passage: 2–3 hours. Equipment:

• chocks
• 5–8 quickdraws
• slings for blocking pitons.
