The routes

Pleasant "easy" new route at Gorroppu established by Corrado Pibiri and Vincenzo Carcangiu: 335m high, 7 pitches, excellent grey limestone slabs. Bolted throughout, the Los Compadres is graded 5c+.

New route on the Lastoni di Formin (Dolomites) at the hands of Mario Dibona and Gretchen Alexander. The duo created a new bolt 300m route up the center of Spiz de Mondeval, calling it "Love my dogs" and grading it...

According to Rolando Larcher, despite some vegetation low down Luce di Primo Mattino "offers surprisingly good quality rock from start to finish."

Lucertolaia on Lastoni di Formin in the Italian Dolomites is a route with a both traditional and modern feel to it, almost Californian with belays that are mainly bolted and the pitches that need protecting with trad gear as they...

Pleasant easy route established by Giorgio Iurato alone with one bivy. Little pro and the wild environment make this a demanding outing which should not be underestimated.

Completely bolt protected new route up a hitherto unclimbed face called Costas Mammaluccas, located shortly before the section of the Gole di Gorropu canyon which hosts a series of small lakes.The 470m route offers ten pitches and climbs beautiful grey...

Luna Nascente can rightly be considered a true pearl of the Alps, an absolutely fantastic route in Val di Mello. A beautiful perfect series of cracks and flakes on fantastic rock which has few equals in the rest of Europe....

Madre Roccia climbs the right side of Specchio di Sara on the south face of Marmolada (Dolomites). The route was first ascenedd between 2022 and 2023 by Iris Bielli, Matteo Della Bordella, Massimo Faletti and Maurizio Giordani, with difficulties up to...

Intersting climb on the SE Face SE Face of Sass de Stria (2477m) above Passo Valparola up surprisingly good rock. The first 3 pitches of the route are up grey, solid rock. From the 4th pitch onwards, the terrain steepens...

Beautiful, logial and direct climbing up the SW Face of Torre dei Sabbioni. The route shares the first 3 meters of Diretta Livanos beore continuting directly up the obvious cracks towards the series of corners.

The rock on pitch 1 requires a little care, and this leads to the big corner where, every now and then, the fact that you need to add some natural pro adds a bit of spice to the climb. Pitch...

Route first ascended from the ground up using 10mm stainless steel bolts. Although not top end, the difficulties are continuous and the route is strenuous due to its length. Medium and small camming devices recommend, as well as long quickdraws...

Pleasant climbing up the open granite Locherie face. The route ascends a series up slabs up the south face to reach an arched crack. Where the face straightens out climb the beautiful arete past a series of crimps to reach the top.

Maleficent tackles the the central section of the NW Face, climbing the compact slabs using a more modern approach than the older routes. It was climbed ground-up with a mix of pegs and a few bolts placed where rests were...

This classic route is not particularly popular, but unjustifiably so. It takes a central line up the solid yellow grey slabs and the middle pitches are very beautiful indeed. Well worth repeating

Great sport climb in a forgotten vally tha looks out onto the South Face of Monte Duranno. The rock is excellent limestone, rough on the lower section followed by Verdonesque slabs and provides some fun climbing in a new and...
