Superquartz
Superquartz at Gonnesa is a crag comprised of bullet-proof, weathered quarzite rock with plenty of large holds. The climbing is exceedingly pleasant and the adjective that is often heard by those climbing here is "fun". This is indeed the most fitting term to describe the climbing which is always athletic and easy to read, hence the crag is ideal for beginners. Given these characteristics, the bolting is obviously plaisir, but the bolts are not embarrassing close. The quality of the gear is excellent, with stainless steel certified belays.
From Gonnesa reach Via Amendola and exit the town towards Monte San Giovanni. In front of some houses, turn left. Here the dirt road begins its ascent. At present those with a low car are forced to park here. Those who can continue (perhaps the road will be fixed in the future) can drive up to the antennas, even without a 4x4. From here, following the road, the crag can be reached in 5 minutes, otherwise reckon with 20/25 minutes on foot from the first parking lot.
LogisticsIn the village the Locanda S'Anninnia is ideal for breakfasts, dinners and overnight stays. Numerous alternatives and for all pockets. The sea is located just a couple of kilometers away beautiful beaches. Relatively close Sant'Antioco and Carloforte.
PeriodMid-season, but you can climb all year round. The crag receives the sun around 11 in winter, around 13-14 in summer. The routes on the right remain wet until the sun arrives. With mistral wind or after dry spell the rock is generally dry everywhere.
NotesThe base is wide and ideal for children, unless they are right below the climbers.
