Cara

First ascent: Alessio Roverato,Angela Carraro, March - June 2012
By: Alessio Roverato
Area: Valsugana, Group: Val Gadena, Peak: Val Gadena, Country: Italy, Region: Veneto

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. Finding the start of the route is not easy as this is located in an area where there are no paths and the only tracks are those of chamois.

GETTING THERE

From Valsuguna drive into Val Gadena and park at the start of the valley, just before the closed road sign. The route line is obvious on the left

Il terzo tiro da solo merita l'intera via (placca a gocce con continuità finale su roccia imperiale)! La roccia è da buona a ottima su tutto l'itinerario, un po' sporchi il primo e ultimo tiro. L4 probabilmente sovragradata, ma regala cmq l'obbligatorio più alto della via. Complimenti ad Alessio e Angela che chiodano queste vie su luoghi appartati e pareti selvagge, regalando ai ripetitori solitarie emozioni. Prestare un po' di attenzione al sentiero d'accesso (traccia di camosci esposta). Discesa preferibile per la Val Cestona, faccia a monte a dx. Si allunga di mezz'ora ma si evita la traccia scabrosa in discesa.
