The routes

It seems almost impossible that there are still some little known descents in the Pale di San Martino group since this area is highly popular with mountaineers and climbers all year round. And, better still, that these descents are neither...

Vallée Blanche is like Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct: really beautiful, but it’s best not to get too distracted. Although it might seem a no more than a "scenic walk", never underestimate the Vallée Blanche as it is a route that develops...

Easy but airy climb up the entire ridge to the top of the pillar. While the rock is generally excellent, tale care where the crest is somewhat thinner. There is no in-situ gear on this route and the first ascentionists...

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...

Great ice and mixed climb up the West Face of Sass Pordoi in the Dolomites, climbed over a two-day period after having fixed te first 150m of Via Fedele. On 3 December 2013 Corrado Pesce and Jeff Mercier climbed Via...

110m route that climbs a series of slabs and cracks on the WNW Face of Canolo's third tower. Established ground-up and bolted, additional trad pro is requierd to back up some of the run-outs. Generally solid rock. 

Pleasant route established ground-up by Simon Kehrer and Roman Valentini. The route takes a logical line between the routes Tridentina and Ai bimbi di Beslan. Even if the route is bolted, take Friends and nuts.

The route ascends beautiful limestone, smooth and grey on the lower section, then reddish and very rough indeed. Mainly technical climbing with one pumpy crux pitch.

Great route up the SW Face of Meisules de la Bièsces characterised by a large roof crux at mid-height, followed technical climbing in a superb mountain environment.The 12 pitch route was first ascended by Val Gardena locals Ivo Rabanser and Stefan Comploi...

Difficult multi-pitch climb established ground-up by Rolando Larcher and Maurizio Oviglia on Monte Santu.

The 270m Mezzogiorno di fuoco weighs in at 8b (7c obligatory) and climbs the overhangs in the center of the fantastic pillar which cuts through the entire wall. Larcher led all pitches after three days working the route. If their...

Technical and demanding climb protected by a mix of trad gear and bolts. The route climbs a line in a wild but realatively easily accessible setting. The route faces north and is ideal for the summer months.

Marinaio di foresta is a beautiful route that climbs diagonally up Pedra Longa, also known as Agugliastra, the extraordianry sea stack close to Baunei. The fantastic ambient and the aggressive rock render this an unforgettable outing!Given its beauty, the location, the difficulty...

Pleasant easy route up weathered rock that climbs compact slabs, corners and short walls. Set in a unique and impressive ambient, this route has been equipped and carefully cleaned and is ideal for beginners.

The route explores the face which seems to have been unclimbed until now, and attempts to follow the large arete. While the lower section is demanding and almost vertical, in particular pitch 1, the angle then eases off and the...

Over a six day period this summer the two South Tyrolean climbers Josef Hilpold and Ulrich Viertler made the first ascent of Wüstenblume - desert flower - up the pillar located between the routes Mutschlecher - Großrubatscher and Diedro Mayerl...
