Slope: 1770meters!
Time: 4h45min to summit.

First section to Ibon de Ip:
slope: 1000m.
time: 2h 30min.

The itinerary of Ibon de Ip is the same for the mountains of the cirque, you must to consult the route of first section in the page of Collarada

Second section-to the summit:
slope: 770m.
time: 2h 15 min
total to summit: 1770m (4h45min)

Some meters before the dam of Ip, in the area of the huts, we leave the route of Collarada (east) and we turn to north side for some terraces to reach across a terrain of grass and rocks the bottom of the wide corridor (some cairns). In the wide corridor the snow remain in spring but the slope is not hard. Without snow the effort is bigger with a lot of stones. After a long time we reach the upper side of corridor. In this point, with the peaks of Tronquera in left side, we turn to right (east) to reach the west ridge. The beggining is an edge of rocks and the use of the hands is neccesary (grade I). The ridge is a little exposed but easy. After the first section we can walk in the south side (without snow) or near of the edge (with snow in the hillside). The ramps go to some great blocks of stones and finally we see the cone of the summit.

Essential Gear

Crampons and ice axe are necessary in winter and generally early in the season (may, june), july-september (summer) is a good season without snow but the wide corridor had a lot of stones. Personally I prefer the springtime reaching the upper side of the corridor (“canchalera”) with crampons in the snow that remain but the access of the final ridge is more exposed.
