The routes

Bambi is situated in a grandiose environment, extremely wild and isolated. The extenuating approach, the 300m climb and long descent render this more an alpine outing than a sport climb. There is plenty of potential for further routes thanks above...

4 March 2010: “A new icefall has been discovered in the Vinadia canyon. It seems incredible that no one ever noticed such ice formations so close to home, or at least, that no ice climber ever took a closer look!”...

Short but highly satisfying icefall in an enchanting, magical environment with two pools of water inside the canyon.

A bolted mixed pitch with a fair bit of ice. The traverse is demanding and delicate.

An exceptional, beautiful route with a psychologically difficult start followed by a difficult crux on the icefall itself. After this the pro improves and the drip offers some good rests, but the climbing should not be underestimated. The exit is...

A large detached drip offers a brief mixed section. The drip above is difficult to protect. The route seems easier than it really is!

Demanding mixed route established in winter which breaches demanding sections of mixed rock and ice in search of the line obvious line of weakness in a wild and solitary environment. The route requires stable snow conditions and a long cold...

One of the most beautiful and classic ridge traverses in the Mont Blanc massif, set in the magnificent high altitude ambient. Varied, up mixed terrain and with snowy sections that are deciedly knife-edge and airy (Gino Buscaini).Were we to define...

Goulotte del Pioda is a fun climb, with moderate difficulties, clearly visible from Val di Mello. In spring it is usually in good condition and the hardest section is the start, which appeared circa 20 years ago when the Pioda...

A classic alpine ice route established in May 2011: three very alpine like pitches with thin ice and scrappy mixed climbing led to another three  three sustained ice pitches and the top of the seracs. The route finishes on the...

"Piantobaldo" was the name Bruno "Camos” Tassi  gave to Roby Piantoni. After the first two pitches shared with Orobic Ice the route continues for a total of 11 pitches and 600m to climb the NW Face of Presolana Occidentale. This...

Mixed line which follows a logical rocky corner, just to the left of the pillar and “Questo gioco di Fantasmi”. The rock is friable in sections and at times both dirty and covered in grass, meaning that favourable ice conditions...

Nice route, far from the usual ice climbing destinations...

Super Goofer can be climbed in two ways. A first 35m pitch up 75/80° ice (Goofer direct, grade 3) or a corner gully to the left which leads directly to the base of the upper drip.

Very difficult mixed route. In some seasons a direct first pitch comes into condition, but this is extremely rare.

Very interesting line with conditions - and consequently difficulties - which vary considerably from one year to the next. In some seasons it is an almost exclusively mixed outing.
