About this

Exposed most of the way, which is the point — there is nothing between you and the drop but grass. Windy above the treeline and genuinely cold in January. Longer than it looks on a map.

Guide recommended. You may go alone, but a guide is the sensible choice here. The ridge is open grass with no marked path and the cloud comes down fast. Going with somebody who knows the line is the sensible choice.

No guide on MaladTrip has listed this one yet, so it cannot be booked here. You can still do it on your own — the details above are what you need. We have described it anyway: it is worth doing, and we would rather tell you it exists than pretend it does not.
