Climbing Route: From the Shelter you go down and from the board you take the path which goes to the left direction. This passes on great rock and goes beyond the two lakes inf. of the Ischiator (2064mt); it finally meets the chart trail P26 on the rock which indicates the right direction. You climb following ample bends up to the crossroad of the Pass Laris and the Tall Beak: you leave this last one on the right and after few last narrow and steep curves you reach the lowland. The path is well signaled from two parallel files of stones and on the right it goes along the lake of the middle Ischiator (2010mt). The path then climbs, on tiny stones and earth, with ample curves, up to a rocky crag. Once you climb this last one, you continue on great rocks smoothed by the glacial period, to reach the rise with a great stone on which it is indicated to continue on the right in light descent, to go along, with evident path, the lake of the Ischiator sup. (2755mt). You continue sideways on the right and you reach the Pass of the Ischiator (2860mt). Just at the beginning of the lowland on the pass, on the right, a well visible path follows the crest and climb on steep slabs to the near and panning South Top of the Ischiator (2929m).
