Rio Gere, climbing at Cortina, Dolomites

There's a new crag to climb on close to Cortina: Rio Gere. In truth the first routes were bolted on this enormous outcrop at the start of the '90's by Diego Ghedina "Tomasc", a member of the local Scoiattolo group who realised the potential of this crag.

Ghedina soon abandoned this project however as he discovered another attractive face: the "Crepe d' Oucera bassi" which he bolted from start to finish with constant and convinced passion.

Many years have passed since then but recently two untiring Scoiattoli climbers decided to valorise the crag once more. The expert Mox (Massimo Da Pozzo) and Bruno Sartorelli sorted out the original routes and created numerous other, up to 40m long overhanging lines.

Thanks to them Cortina now has another great crag to train on!
