The routes

This climbs the obvious two corners up the West Face of the Cima Cason di Formin. The first faces south and is 80 meters long, whilst the second, facing north and two thirds of the way up, can be done...

The West Face takes a line to the right of Diedro Dallago, up solid but sometimes dirty rock. It initially follows a series of corners, before continuing up an obvious crack which forks high up beneath the yellow roof. The...

This solid 4+ takes the large corner that unfortunately is prone to seepage after rain. The only difficult section (5) on the first pitch can be avoided by starting 20m to the left and climbing up the series of small...

This route takes the arête up the large, compact pillar on the left-hand side of the Lastoni dei Formin. The first section rises to the right up the corners before reaching the arête proper. The route becomes progressively harder and...

A nice, sustained climb up the large central pillar on the West Face, bolted on lead. The difficulties ease off in the upper section, since the rock becomes more slabby and weathered.

Another excellent bolt route up the exposed buttress. The route partially follows an old aid-route. The climbing is very similar to that on the other routes nearby: sustained and technical.

This difficult route rises up a characteristic overhanging yellow wall, clearly visible from the Passo Giau. The climbing is highly technical and sustained, with hard sections that, apart from the 8a crux pitch (or A0/A1), cannot be aided.

Slightly overhanging face climbing, both sustained and technical. The route follows the obvious arête on the left-hand side of the wall. Although bolt protected, these were placed on lead; run-outs are not uncommon. The rock is practically devoid of natural...

This short route is significantly harder than Dallago and rises up the large pillar that characterises the wall, tackling the most compact and best rock. From the top of the pillar it shares the same finish as Dallago, but alternatively...

An easy and accessible route up a series of ledges on solid rock with plenty of holds and threads. The route takes a line up the large pillar in the middle of the Southwest Face, from which the summit can...

An extremely popular mid-grade route. It initially follows the large corner at the base of the arête, then continues up slightly to the left of the arête, before moving right to avoid the roofs. This traverse and corner above constitute...

A nice, unknown and never before published route up good rock. It is similar in grade to Costantini Ghedina, whose finish it shares. The final three pitches, and in particular the short pitch above the ledge, are the hardest.

This is surely the most famous and popular route on this wall, thanks to its intrinsic beauty and perfect line. It is long and demanding, and initially climbs the crack line up the grey rock to the first ledge. From...

A relatively easy and popular climb (UIAA 4 and 5, one 6- crux) up the left-hand arête of the Pilastro della Tofana di Rozes. The three hard pitches traverse leftwards past two large yellow roofs at half height. Paradoxically, the...

A demanding route up the left-hand side of the pillar. The compact and featured rock is one of the best to be found on the Tofana. The fourth and fifth pitches are the hardest, but the rest of the route...

Bolted on lead, this route follows the black streaks up through the overhangs above the rifugio Giussani. The initial section is friable but this improves as height is gained.
