SuPer Nava on Sas da la Luna (Dolomites) in memory of Simone Navarini

SuPer Nava ascends compact rock up the southwest face of Sas de la Luna, the last summit in the Sass delle Dodici group (Monzoni group) of the Dolomites. The route was established ground-up over 4 days between 2024 and 2025. The pitches were subsequently freed on different days.

The route is dedicated to our great friend Simone Navarini, known as Nava, who passed away on June 25th, 2025, while climbing in Brenta, doing one of the things he loved most: climbing.

Our group of friends is very close-knit; beyond sharing good times together, we have shared countless moments in the mountains, which have brought us closer than ever. Losing Nava at the beginning of this summer was a hard blow, after which we lost all interest in climbing. However, time has helped us find the strength to move on and to understand that, if Nava were here, he would definitely tell us it's time to get back to doing what makes us feel best.

Our first thought was to lay our hands on this route again, which is truly spectacular: very compact, pocketed slabs… precisely the style he loved. Such a gem could only be dedicated to our great friend, so as to never forget him.
