What I am about to describe is a pleasant walk in the mountains, neither difficult nor dangerous, which starts at the Cimabanche Pass (1529 m) and leads us to Prato Piazza, the plateau that extends up to an altitude of...

The Sentiero Olivieri is an easy equipped path facilities that joins Rifugio Pomedes (2303 m) with rifugio Ra Valles (2470 m). It is important to not confuse the Sentiero Olivieri with the similar sounding Via ferrata G. Olivieri, as the...

4 pitch aid climb up Pinnacolo di Maslana. Probably the first modern aid climb in the valleys above Bergamo in Northern Italy.

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...

The route climbs the peak (marked 3022mon the Frébouge glacier in Val Ferret. Superb rock, fully equipped with 10mm stainless steel bolts, plus twin bolts connected with slings and maillon rapide for the abseils.

Pleasant outing first climbed by Maurizio Bergamo and Ferruccio Svaluto Moreolo. The route follows the large crack that is reached on pitch 2 and follows this all the way to the top, hence it's "classic" nature.

The route is located on the lefthand side of the bastion that dominates Valtronella, Pizzo di Mezzaluna, in the Orobie Alps.

Climbed ground-up and onsight over two days by Luca Schiera and Silvan Schüpbach who breached difficulties somewhere in the region of 6c/7a using only trad gear and pegs to protect the circa 450m line. "A long term dream of mine has...

Short alpine outing up excellent weathered limestene past runnels and small pockets. Technical, smooth slab climbing.

Climbed ground-up by the mountain guides Daniele Macagno and Enrico Turnaturi in summer 2013. While not particularly long, the climbing is fairly demanding and the rock is almost always superb. Another plus point is the short approach: if the road that...

The beautiful Via Ferrata San Salvatore winds its way up the NW Face of San Salvatore above Lugano and tackles a line to the left of the funicular railway.Over 250m long and 150m high, this “sporty” via ferrata is considered...

The walk to the doline and remains of the villages of Tiscali only takes a couple of hours, but the environment is quite wild and as of today the route is not marked. This means that it is not an...
