The routes

This short route close to Rif. Averau (2413m) is ideal for completing the classic trip round Averau and Nuvolau, or as a half day outing. From the peak of Averau, which dominates the horizon between Passo Falzarego and Passo Giau,...

This difficult route rises up a characteristic overhanging yellow wall, clearly visible from the Passo Giau. The climbing is highly technical and sustained, with hard sections that, apart from the 8a crux pitch (or A0/A1), cannot be aided.

An easy and accessible route up a series of ledges on solid rock with plenty of holds and threads. The route takes a line up the large pillar in the middle of the Southwest Face, from which the summit can...

Another excellent bolt route up the exposed buttress. The route partially follows an old aid-route. The climbing is very similar to that on the other routes nearby: sustained and technical.

Intersting climb on the SE Face SE Face of Sass de Stria (2477m) above Passo Valparola up surprisingly good rock. The first 3 pitches of the route are up grey, solid rock. From the 4th pitch onwards, the terrain steepens...

This short route is significantly harder than Dallago and rises up the large pillar that characterises the wall, tackling the most compact and best rock. From the top of the pillar it shares the same finish as Dallago, but alternatively...

An interesting climb to the right of Corto Matese that via a logical and exposed line breaches the west face of Coston d'Averau.

Slightly overhanging face climbing, both sustained and technical. The route follows the obvious arête on the left-hand side of the wall. Although bolt protected, these were placed on lead; run-outs are not uncommon. The rock is practically devoid of natural...

A new, short via ferrata which replaces the original one along the gully which is now closed for safety. The via ferrata runs along the southeast face and is normally undertaken in descent leaving from Rifugio Nuvolau. This is reached...
