The routes

A great climb that ascends the narrow portion of the face between the 1970 Schubert Werner and the 191973 Platter Rizzi. The climb was started by Marco Bozzetta in autumn of 2019 with Andrea Concini, who tragically died that winter...

Elegant classic route which climbs the arête that divides the west face from the south. This is a pleasant and exposed route up good quality rock, at times excellent, which first climbs the large face, then the obvious beautiful featured...

In the summers of 2002 and 2003 the Scoiattoli Luigi Majoni and Davide Gaspari established a difficult and beautiful route up the East Face of the Tofana di Mezzo. The route isn't well-known and ascends splendid limestone slabs and...

The short overhanging yellow wall of the Cima Piccolissima is breached by the demanding Via Cassin. All loose holds on this stratified dolomite have been cleaned. The route faces SE and is therefore climbable before and after summer.

The Cassin up Cima Ovest di Lavaredo is a beautiful route, one of the classics in the Dolomites. Exposed and sustained climbing up to 7a, on fairly solid rock.

A “classic” addition that climbs the arête to the left of Diedro Dallago, up good quality rock. 18 pegs were placed on the first ascent, and the difficulties, apart from the third crux pitch, are in the region of UIAA...

Via Comici Dimai is the classic example of rock climbing in the Dolomites. Although difficult if climbed without using aid, its popularity is justified by its beauty and excellent rock. English topo in pdf download.

An interesting and relatively unknown route on the right-hand side of the Lagazuoi’s North Face. The rock quality is fairly good, but a bit loose in the upper section.

In 2002 Paolo Da Pozzo and Walter Bachmann established an interesting route up the east face of the North-East summit of Cima Marcoira (or Malquoira, 2422m), a lone offshoot of Mt. Sorapis.Although the route is protected by bolts, it isn’t...

Via Decima (also referred to as Colatoio nero, black streak) follows a beautiful grey corner and then continues up the long black steak, solid and full of holds. The climbing is fun, varied and often airy, but always offers good...

A classic route through the center of the Tofana di Mezzo’s beautiful East Face. First ascended with the help of aid, it now goes free at 7a. Excellent quality rock, except for a few rare exceptions, and plenty of in-situ...

Via dei Balotini was established with bolts, trad gear and in the cold. The climb tackles sections of very compact rock thanks to the bolts, but wherever possible trad gear was used, meaning that some pitches have a particularly alpine...

A modern route to the left of Via del Drago. It is protected with 10 mm bolts and on the whole the rock quality is good, apart from some friable sections on the first pitches. Either abseil back down the...

Via del Buco on the lefthand side of Piccolo Lagazuoi is a pleasant climb in the sun on good-quality rock with plenty of fixed gear, suitable even at the start and end of the season. The upper section of the original...

This route climbs a long series of slabs, corners, chimneys and cracks up the left-hand arête of Punta Rocca, the second highest peak on the Queen of the Dolomites. It is an excellent, beautiful and varied route that highlights the...

This route winds its way through the easiest sections of the overhanging West Face of Lagazuoi Nord. At half height it traverses leftwards above the roofs along the lowest ledges (be careful not to traverse along the higher ledges). Its...
