The routes

The first pitch starts 10m to the left of the route "Pustertaler - Halbgefrohrenes". The pegs are clearly visible on this first section, and the first belay is shared with "Pustertaler - Halbgefrohrenes". The second pitch climbs left above the...

A little known walk which offers splendid views onto the marvelous Schlern, leads past two ancient churches and discovers numerous hidden gems of the Ritten. 

A little ice and mixed climbing gem, clearly visibile from the Skyway cable car. The couloir is located below Torrione di Entrèves, between Aiguille de la Brenva and the Toula glacier.

Interesting route with a beautiful second pitch.  The bolts are fairly run-out at times, though never dangerously so, and a small trad rack is recommended for additional protection.

A nice, unknown and never before published route up good rock. It is similar in grade to Costantini Ghedina, whose finish it shares. The final three pitches, and in particular the short pitch above the ledge, are the hardest.

Superb and varied ice climb in a great winter ambience with views onto Mont Blanc.

First ascended from the ground-up in 2003 with 8mm bolts, this nice 250m route takes a line up the left-hand side of the Gran Vernel buttress, the large east-facing wall which looks onto Lake Fedaia. The rock tends to be...

Pleasant climb that breaches the steep yellow section up the centre of the SE Face of Col dei Bos, to the left of Via Francesa put up by Paolo Da Pozzo and Giuseppe Ghedina.

Beautiful climb that offers some modern mixed sections and techincal ice climbing.

This route follows the large corner up the middle of the wall to the large roofs at half height. From here it continues leftwards, shares a belay with Thriller and Balbic and continues up slabs and cracks between the two....

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...
