The routes

Beautiful former aid climb established by the brothers Enrico Mauro and Mirko Minuzzo and freed in 2003 by Mauro Bubu Bole that has now become established as a classic testpiece.

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...

Highly satisfying route in fairly isolated surroundings. The climbing is varied and includes small crimps and pockets, technical slabs and powerful overhangs. The rock quality is very good except for a few meters at the start of the first pitch....

Splendid icefall which rarely forms, clearly visible from the Tre Croci pass and the car park at Rio Gere.

The Cascata del sole is a great line which, given the right conditons, can be climbed in the sun. Starting from a wide base, the route narrows as it gains height into a small gully towards the end.Sottoguda represents an...

Impressive freestanding icefall, clearly visibile from Termine di Cadore.

Chimera Verticale is an extremely logical and elegant line up the legendary NW Face of Civetta. It weaves its way through all the weakpoints on the the pillar to reach the summit of Punta Civetta between the routes Aste and...

This playground of towers and pinnacles is a classic and irresistible destination, even for those who have been there 1000 times before. Always different yet unmistakable, the enchanting Cinque Torri never fail to amaze, especially when in winter white.
