The crag Bus de Vela at Trento, Italy
Valerio Ballardini
"At Bus di Vela there are 37 pitches, of which 22 are well harder than 8b! Most routes were bolted by me, the others by Gabriele Moroni, Rolando Larcher and Max Faletti. A special thanks goes to all those who helped clean this marvellous crag!" These are the words of Valerio Ballardini, the strong climber from Trento and driving force behind developing Bus de Vela into one of the hardest crags in Italy.
