The route begins at the door of the clinic, right next to the lower station of the Al Andalus gondola lift in the Sierra Nevada ski resort. It goes up along the El Río slope, passes through the slope called La Playa, and connects with Borreguiles via the slope called Paso de las Temopilas. From Borreguiles, the route continues almost straight, first passing through green slopes and then tackling the El Cordón slope (Antonio Zayas drag lift). The last meters of ascent take place out of the skiable area. The descent is carried out following the same route as the ascent.

This infinity loop connects Mt. Minsi and Mt. Tammany, the notable peaks flanking the Delaware River as it carves through the Kittatinny Ridge. Spanning the Pennsylvania and New Jersey border via the I-80 bridge, the route integrates scenic stretches of the Appalachian Trail, the Lake Road Trail (PA), and the rugged Red Dot and Blue Blaze trails (NJ).

This is one of the best documented routes up Zugspitze (the highest mountain in Germany) and is a prime candidate for competition ascents because its the fastest way up to the summit. The route includes a run from Albsee (a nearby tourist attraction and famous lake with a hotel). The record holder will then need to ascend a via ferrata up to the alpine summit of Zugspitze and should reach the natural summit with the golden cross and not just make it to the platform with the gondola!
