The routes

A very beautiful mixed outing, both complete and demanding: rock and mixed climbing leads to a small ledge on the left and then, around the corner, a beautiful corner rises sharply upwards. This is followed by another, with a thin...

Great route first climbed to the summit by Andrea Reboldi and Claudio Migliorini on 4/11/2013. The first attempt of this line probably goes back to the 1990s by Care' & C; considering the intense activity by local climbers there may well have...

Pleasant mixed climb up the sunny south face of Monte Nero. The route, which ends on the summit, is shorter than those on the north face, not too difficult but with some sections that are more demanding. 

In May and July 2014 Andrea Saviane, Enrico De Nard "Thunder" and I bolted a new drytooling / total dry crag close to the normal crag at Monte Dolada in the Belluno Prealps, located at 1500m above sea level and...

Splendid climb above the Amalfi coast, put up by Rolando Larcher, Luca Giupponi and Nicola Sartori on 15 and il16/10/2014 and freed the next day by the first ascentionists.

Pleasant climb at the Anfiteatro sector, Gola di Frasassi, first ascended by Rolando Larcher and Luca Giupponi on 23 - 24 October 2013, freed on 12/10/2014 together with Nicola Sartori.

Pleasant route put up by Rolando Larcher and Luca Giupponi at the Feudo sector of the Gola di Frasassi.

New dytooling and total dry crag designed by Enrico Bonino and bolted with the help of Hugues Bonnel (Odyssee Montagne) and Giancarlo Bazzocchi. Thanks also to Ilaria Sonatore, Marco Ghisio and Filippo Laurora.

This route rarely comes into condition and should be avoided at all costs after snowfall due to avalanche danger on the slopes that lead to the base of the climb.

Pleasant climbing up the open granite Locherie face. The route ascends a series up slabs up the south face to reach an arched crack. Where the face straightens out climb the beautiful arete past a series of crimps to reach the top.

A new mixed outing up the extreme left-hand side of the North Face of   Monte Nero (Presanella). Climbed in 5 hours, as the name suggests the route was climbed with trad gear only, including the belays, and offers exciting,...

The Corner kick is an authentic 900m big wall that follows the first 13 pitches of the route Freya (Daniela Jasper, Robert Jasper 1998) to then break off left instead of continuing up the obvious corner. Five new, difficult and...

Alpine multi-pitch that requires excellent technical ability and superb trad climbing skills. 200m high, the route overhangs 30m making a retreat very difficult. The rock quality is good and the route follows a line of tufas. Due to the proximity...

Via del Trenino, the route of the small train, was climbed ground-up in autumn 1986 with some pegs, a few hexes and wooden wedges for protection by Giampaolo Calzà Trota, Andrea Zucchelli and Rino Zanotti. In autumn 2014 Calzà and Danny Zampiccoli...

An ephemeral couloir, never too extreme but not to be underestimated due to the difficulty in placing gear on some pitches. Comparable to the Rebuffat Terray route on the Pelerins in dry conditions... with a bit more climbing to do...!

A very demanding route which requires a good level of familiarity with drytooling and placing gear. It has the potential of becoming a classic route in its genre.
