The routes

The Grotta di Pian was bolted by Mario Prinoth and Renato Bernard, with the help of other local climbers. It is is an ideal training venue for bigger climbs in the mountains and to learn the subtleties of "dry-tooling". The...

During the mid-half of latter century the Grotta di Tofana was a highly popular outing with visiting tourists, now though it is has fallen into disuse. I believe though that the walk and ferrata remains a highly interesting outing, above...

Pleasant mixed climbing cave only 30 minutes drive from Bozen. The climbs are equipped as sports routes, with bolts and with a chain at the top. The overhanging routes have insitu quickdraws.

The climb was established over seven days ground-up, using a mix of normal pegs, bolts and trad gear. Hakuna Matata follows a "logical" line up the central part of Tae’s South Face, and includes some traverses where the rock was...

Hakuna Matata is a mixed and ice climb up the North Face of Wasserkopf (3135m), Rieserferner group, Tauern Alps. The route crosses, at 2/3 height, the line first climbed in 1977 by Werner Beikircher and Hans Kammerlander.

Happy Birthday winds its way up a long couloir, past ice runnels and compact snow up the righthand side of the south face of Aiguille de l'Évêque in the Grandes Jorasses group of the Mont Blanc massif. 1000m high, it...

Happy ending ascends the obvious drip in Val Trementina (Paganella). Happy ending shares the first pitch of Nido d'Aquila, while the belay is independent. Pitch two leads rightwards. Three bolts were placved on the second pitch as the ice was...

Great rock climb first ascended ground-up over 4 days by Rolando Larcher and Nicola Sartori.The beauty of the rock, the particular form of the face with comfortable ledges, the starting cave that resembles a spiral staircase and connects to natural holes...

Delicate climbing up somewhat poor quality rock. Bolts at the belays and on the more delicate sections of both pitches. On the second pitch a short mixed section leads to a spectacular drip. The climb is located in a deep...

Superb route in a grandiose ambience. An extremely satisfying climb. In particularly good seasons the first two pitches form a spectacular hanging drip (70m III 5+). This has happened twice in the last 15 years.

Hard or Soft? climbs the beautiful Sol Levante face on the Scogliera di Masua sea cliff. Established ground-up in 2001 by Flaviano Bessone and Ezio Marlier, it was completely rebolted in 316 stainless steel at the end of 2022 by...

Hart aber fair - hard but fair - is located between the only other two routes on the face, namely Neolit and Spaßbremse (both established by Gietl between 2014 and 2015) and was forged ground-up over two days in summer...

An important old aid-route that takes a direct line up the North Face of the Cima Grande. Regardless of the style of ascent, the route, due to its 18 pitches, is very tiring and thus requires a certain level of...

The route Hasta la vista is mostly on solid rock, only the initial and final pitches require a bit of care. It is certainly not a sports climb. Only the belays 2 to 8 have been equipped with one bolt. In order...

A logical sequence of slender cracks to the left of Io non ho paura up the Scoglio delle Metamorfosi. In 2014 Pietro Biasini, Daniele Bianchi and Mirko Masè established the first seven pitches, in November 2015 Bianchi and Masé completed...

Interesting modern route up the North Face.
