Normal climbing routes

There are two normal routes and they both start in Krnica valley, and they merge under the summit. One of them goes over the summit of Lipnica and the other is the Kacji Graben route. The former has a few easy sections with fixed cables and the latter is just a steep walk up. Both are snow-free in summer months. Around 5 hours is needed from the valley to the summit.
