From the Torpedo bus station by car along the Ossetian Military Road towards the Mamisson Pass to the Mamikdon River, which flows from the Ronketi Glacier, along the trail that runs along the right bank of the river to the moraine. Cross the river and follow the trail along the ridge of the first moraine, which runs along the left bank of the river — ascent to the overnight stays located in the hollow between the two moraines. Cairn on the moraine. 1.5 hours from the Ossetian Military Road (see Appendix I). From the overnight stays, go right to the ridge of the next moraine and ascend to its end. From here, go right onto the glacier (be careful, crevasses) and cross it in the direction of the Freshfield Pass. The Freshfield Pass is accessed via a couloir, which is wide and snowy at the bottom, with a bergschrund. The ascent to the pass initially goes up the middle of the couloir. In the middle section, the couloir narrows, and the ascent is made along its right side, close to the rocks. In the upper part, the couloir widens again and breaks into several branches. Leaving a large rocky outcrop on the left, ascend via the leftmost narrow scree couloir, which leads to the Freshfield Pass, at the start of the route. 1.5–2 hours from the overnight stays. From the pass, ascend left and upwards along the ridge, via moderately difficult rocks, 20–30 m. Then ascend straight up a narrow rocky couloir for 2–3 ropes. Protection via rock outcrops. The ascent is always on the right side of the eastern ridge. Then follow an inclined ledge and further via a cleft exit left onto the ridge, 1.5–2 ropes, piton belay. Continue along the ridge: initially sharp, then broadening. A large boulder is bypassed on the right. Further along ledges to the right of the ridge, ascend to the summit. 1.5–2 hours from the pass.
