The routes

This striking dihedral/corner had caught my attention a few times in the past, but I could never see much ice and so I never managed to explore it. However, when Mathieu flew over it with his paraglider and got a good view of how...

A pleasant narrow couloir just a stone's throw from the Skyway cable car. Six pitches lead past difficulties in the region of TD-, M6 and AI4+ to the 3,534-meter summit of Aiguille de Toule.

Beautiful and by no means easy ice climb with a slightly overhanging exit.

Beautiful and by no means easy ice climb that ascends the drip its the left.

Cataluña Express starts with a mixed pitch which without cams becomes even more satisfying, and then finishes more easily up water ice.

A magnificent mixed climb with superb quality rock on the east face of the huge shield on Mont Noir de Peutérey. Every pitch is worth climbing and highly satisfying.

Top-class line on the north-east face of Crozzon di Val d'Agola, with beautiful climbing, at times quite difficult and exposed.

Interesting mixed climbing on the NE Face of Mont Noir de Peuterey. Pitches of ice and compact snow lead to into the steep snow couloir, while the upper section provides pleasant mixed climbing through the gully to reach the ridge...

Beautiful and varied mixed climb on Elferkofel / Cima Undici in the Sexten Dolomites. The route climbs an obvious up to the Cengia degli Alpini ledge and ends here.  Thos ewishing to repat the route are advised to take cams,...

Not a particularly difficult ice climb but in a wild mountain environment with a complex and long approach in the Saint-Barthélemy valley in the Aosta Valley.

Ein Tag zum Träumen, a dream day. Probably the longest ice climb in the entire Langental, it receives the sun almost all day. Perfect conditions are needed to make an ascent possible.

This mixed climb rarely comes into condition. Located to the left of Coboldo Caustico, it shares the the first pitch and a half. The mixed section is protected with bolts and breaches good quality rock. However, as always take great care...

Interesting mixed climb on the north face of Monte Taburlo in the Ampezzo Dolomites. Three initial pitches, not particularly difficult but not to be underestimated, are followed by majestic ice pitches. The most exciting pitch is certainly the first frozen wall, 50 steep...

Cigno Nero, the black swan, climbs a logical line up the ice of the north-east face of Cima Falkner in the heart of the Brenta Dolomites.

An incredible line up Castello di Vallesinella in the Brenta Dolomites, on absolutely amazing rock. Logical, elegant and short. The route follows a crack that takes plenty of pro and which allowed us to make the first ascent onsight.

Interesting mixed climb on the Fontane Fredde face in the Brenta Dolomites, established ground-up on 12/22/2023 by Davide Galizzi and Daniele Leonardelli. This is a stunning line that alternates between airy drips and sections of compact rock. 160 meters split into...
