The routes

Beautiful route in the center of the east face of Monte Colodri above Arco in the Sarca valley.

Head in the Clouds was started by Ivan Maghella on his own, then completed with Alessandro Arduini. Established ground-up, the route provides continuous difficulties with elegant climbing past pockets and goutte d’eau. Some pitches are overhaning, so there’s a bit...

Trad route with long sections that need protecting with nuts & friends.

Nice aid route first ascended by Umberto Marampon and L. Zulian on  Piccolo Dain in 1985 and freed by Rolando Larcher in 2006. The 450m line up one of the most beautiful rock faces in the Sarca valley climb difficulties...

The rock face is hidden and located in an incredibly beautiful and wild part of the canyon called Gola del Limarò. We spent three days making the first ascent, using fixed ropes and topping out on the pillar close to...

Via del Trenino, the route of the small train, was climbed ground-up in autumn 1986 with some pegs, a few hexes and wooden wedges for protection by Giampaolo Calzà Trota, Andrea Zucchelli and Rino Zanotti. In autumn 2014 Calzà and Danny Zampiccoli...

This new route in the Gola del Limarò, unlike the previous ones, is a sport climb and offers beautiful and technical climbing up the “dominant” line of this compact face. What renders this climbing unique though is something else: while...

An absolute masterpiece, established over three days in September 1983 by Manolo and Roberto Bassi by abseiling in from above, Zanzara e Labbradoro is perhaps the most sought-after multi-pitch sport climb in Arco and the entire Sarca Valley. The route...

An amazing climb that runs on the south face of the famous Zanzara pillar. The rock is always good, excellent even on the final pitches where it follows a logical line of tufas and crimps right through the cener of...
