Route

Via Greta was established ground-up over several days in autumn 2018 by Nicola Castagna and Francesco Salvaterra. "The line fully met our expectations, every pitch is beautiful and generally speaking up good rock. Moreover the route follows a line of natural weaknesses, we followed the easiest way though the difficult. The initial idea had been to equip all belays with bolts, but given the ease (and fun) of using only pegs, we opted for the latter. In any case the belays are all very well equipped, mostly with 3 or 4 pegs, while the most challenging sections on the pitches can be protected well but cannot be aided. It’s a route for those at ease on grade VI climbing."
