The routes

One of the great classic and most recommended routes on the Sella. The first section climbs the west face and leads leftwards to the exposed NW arête to continue up this to the summit. The short corner crux leads onto...

The normal route up the Dent du Géant is partially equipped with large ropes to aid the ascent and over the years it has become one of the great classics in the Mont Blanc range. Often crowded, never technically difficult...

Highly technical climbing on slightly overhanging rock, with a crux slab pitch. Strong fingers needed for the small crimps. Redpoint repeat: Andrea Simonini and Rolando Larcher. No on-sight as yet. Best time of year: October to April.

This rock climb ascends the north face of Campanile Basso past excellent rock. The belays were bolted shortly after the first ascent. For those wishing to climb it, we recommend a combination of routes up through the north face, starting...

This solid 4+ takes the large corner that unfortunately is prone to seepage after rain. The only difficult section (5) on the first pitch can be avoided by starting 20m to the left and climbing up the series of small...

In August 2014 the tireless Massimo Da Pozzo and his friend Samuele Majoni chose to restore a great, old route to its former glory: Diedro Fouzigora. Established on 20 August 1944 by Marino Bianchi Fouzìgora and Dino Menardi Selo up...

Logical and extremely exposed line up the obvious corner to the left of the ”Grande Muro”. On the whole the route climbs up fairly solid rock, but in parts though this may be a bit friable.

Dillosauro is located at the Jurassic Park crag on the east coast of Sardinia, and offers exciting climbing up beautiful granite. The line was retraced by Maurizio Oviglia and Fabio Erriu in 2013 after a rockfall had rendered the lower...

A nice route up good quality rock, more sustained and with less in-situ gear than nearby Grande Muro.

Pleasant climb that searches for the line of least resistance up the most repulsive section of the west pillar of Monte Spitz.

DNA climbs the south face of Croda degli Alpini, the sunny foresummit of Cima Ovest in the Tre Cime di Lavaredo group of the Italian Dolomites. Seven long pitches with difficulties up to VII+ led them to the top...

Dolasilla is the first route on the west face of Lavarella that breaches the slabs clearly visible from Val Badia and finishes directly at the summit. It provides technical slab climbing and a beautiful traverse and is well worth repeating....

Dolomiti Race on Piz Ciavazes is a a very beautiful multi-pitch alpine sports climb on grey and reddish rock marked by pockets. Established ground-up and rope-solo, the climbing is exposed. The entire route is bolted and all the belays are equipped...

Route established ground-up. All belays have been equipped with two bolts, thread and maillon rapide for the abseil. This is a modern alpine undertaking, with run-out but safe gear, past hard obligatory climbing. The route climbs steep slabs up excellent...

Beautiful south facing rock climb, recommended in spring or summer. Dolomitspit was first ascended over a period of three days from 2007 to 2015. Protected by pegs and trad gear, as well as some bolts at the belays. Calculate between...

Don Quixote is justifiably the classic line and, consequently, also the most repeated on the wall. The route climbs the characteristic rounded arête and pillar to the right of the routes Conforto - Bertoldi and Phillipp - Henger. It starts...
