The routes

Logical and beautiful line first ascended ground-up by Daniele Bianchi and Simone Pedeferri in June 2016 up the Mongolfiera face in Val di Mello, above Scoglio delle Metamorfosi. The route is composed of 9 pitches, of which the two crux...

A modern route which, given it’s grade, good protection and excellent rock, is destined to become a classic. The route takes trad pro but the belays were bolted on lead and the pitches contain numerous pegs, nevertheless take a selection...

A pumpy and sustained climb that follows the superb slabs to the right of Via Classica, successfully avoiding two roofs and breaching a final overhang. The large roof is the crux and this can be climbed free (7a+) or aided....

The arête has four short vertical sections, linked by less steep terrain. Paradiso Ritrovato follows the crest as best possible, up excellent rock. There is no in-situ gear on this route and the first ascentionists hope the route remains in this...

The West Face takes a line to the right of Diedro Dallago, up solid but sometimes dirty rock. It initially follows a series of corners, before continuing up an obvious crack which forks high up beneath the yellow roof. The...

Parole e pensieri - words and thoughts - climbs good rock up the 250m steep face which is clearly visible from the cable car which leads from Cortina to Ra Valles.

Nice climbing on exceptional limestone. Shade depending on what season you climb, in summer until 12/13. In winter, avoid days when the mistral or libeccio winds blow.

Petri Heil is a beautiful rock climb up excellent rock in an amazing setting. The route climbs close to the famous Demuthkante up the lefthand side of the North Face of Cima Ovest di Lavaredo.

This short route is significantly harder than Dallago and rises up the large pillar that characterises the wall, tackling the most compact and best rock. From the top of the pillar it shares the same finish as Dallago, but alternatively...

Piccolo Diavolo was bolted in 2011 during three days and breaches excellent rock. Six long pitches climb the full height of the South Face of Colodri, with difficulties up to 8a past obligatory 7a climbing. The first pitches are a...

Piccolo Principe is a mix between traditional and modern: traditional for the protection (pegs and natural pro along the pitches, bolts on the belays), and modern due to the direct line which searches for the beauty of climbing up the...

Great route on the right arête of north-east face of Cima Tosa. The climb has three distinct sections: the starting chimney (often wet), the gray central pillar and the wonderful and vertical final pitches that breach the overhangs and lead...

This route takes the arête up the large, compact pillar on the left-hand side of the Lastoni dei Formin. The first section rises to the right up the corners before reaching the arête proper. The route becomes progressively harder and...

Difficult and exposed climbing leads through the yellow eastern pillar of Cima dell’Auta, nicknamed “Pilastro Parmenide” after the famous philosopher Elea. The first section climbs free a series of slabs to the base ledge of the rock face, then continues...

Beautiful and difficult 4-pitch route established and freed by Maurizio 'Manolo' Zanolla up the side of the large central corner at Tognazza (Passo Rolle, Dolomites).

This is a nice route, somewhat harder and less repeated than Geo and Brunsin. Two bolts protect the cruxes, but the fifth pitch, which takes natural pro, is not to be underestimated.
