The south-west pillar is a classic tour, which was straightened a little during the renovation work and thus received a significant upgrade, not only in terms of difficulty.

The "Via Anita" dries quickly due to its south-facing location and offers enjoyable climbing in the lower to medium difficulty range. The tour leads over surprisingly steep, grippy rock.
