The routes

First climbed during July 2007 from the ground up by the Slovenians Marko Lukic and Andrej Grmovsek, "Never give up" climbs the large roof direct to the right of "A quarant'anni dalla Cima" (Dal Pra, 1996) This is how they...

Nido di Rondine is a great modern outing on excellent rock. Varied and satisfying climbing, mainly on a rough slab with featured knobs, but also some corner/crack sections. In 2018 Nicola Castagna and Francesco Salvaterra established (by abseil) a 15m variation...

A modern bolt route first ascended from the ground which climbs the smooth slabs of the tower. The route ascends a compact vertical rock face and offers great mid-grade climbing. Given the route's difficulty, the bolts and beauty, Nikibi is...

No Credit is a difficult route first ascended in summer 2014 by the two South Tyrolean Mountain Guides Simon Gietl and Daniel Tavanini up the SW Face of Tofana di Rozes

Nocturnal Nightmare is an absolutely superb and highly recommend outing up the Pala di Fornolosa. Such an adventure to establish this from the ground with no idea of where we were going!

Interesting route put up by local mountain guide Renato Bernard and Petra Bernard in 2005. despite being entirely equipped with bolts, the route requires alpine experience due to the quality of the rock and the run-out gear.

The route climbs between the obvious corner taken by Via Zeni and the arete of Via Italia 61, up a series of slabs and two alrge overhangs. The climbing is technical on yellow and grey limestone which is almost...

Nostalgie climbs the wall in between Spigolo Comici - Mazzorana and Via Fehrmann on the north face of Cima Piccola. The climb has a very alpine feel to it, all the pegs we used have been left insitu. Some belays...

Rock climb established ground-up over four days. The first three pitches ascend the beautiful vertical grey slab past sharp holds and lead to the next block of three pitches that breach the overhang. Marked by tufas of all shapes and...

Climbed ground-up by the mountain guides Daniele Macagno and Enrico Turnaturi in summer 2013. While not particularly long, the climbing is fairly demanding and the rock is almost always superb. Another plus point is the short approach: if the road that...

Nuvole Bianche was first ascended after 3 attempts, two in 2014 and one in 2016. The hardest part of the route are definitely the first three pitches through the yellow section, that requires good degree of fitness. We returned in...

Even though this is the easiest route described in this chapter, it is without a doubt one of the nicest. Fixed protection is lacking so bring wires and possibly even pegs and a hammer. The start and first two pitches...

Demanding and physically challenging climb in a steep and severe setting, thin belay. Wonderful climbing up excellent rock. A quick team can start at circa 14:00 in the sun and top out in 3-4 hours.

Outstanding climbing in an extraordinarily beautiful setting. The route climbs smooth slabs immediately to the left of the classic 1968 Gogna route, and offer technical climbing up rock reminiscent of that found on Marmolada or in the Rätikon. The route...

Oceano Irrazionale was first route to introduce the grade VII in the Central Alps. Irrational Ocean is a fantastic line up long vertical cracks and a prodigious traverse right, la "Tromba", to reach the suspended pulpit. Certainly one of the...

A superb, independent line up the lefthand side of Cima Grande, marked by its – almost always – comfortable belays. While the climb was put up in 2010 by Hannes Pfeifhofer and Daniel Roger, the first one-day ascent was carried out...
