The characteristic area of Lungaserra consists of big blocks of very solid gneiss polished over the ages. It is situated in the woods uphill of the village of Barge and offers pleasant climbs ranging from 5c to 7b. These crags are climbed best during the hotter months, in the cool shade of the chestnut trees. The crag hosts circa 150 routes on various large boulders which include, above all, the NW - SW facing Masso di Sinistra, Masso di Destra and Masso dei Folletti del Bosco.
