Shares anchor with badia rocks

1st pitch 6b (30m), 2nd pitch 7b+

1st pitch 6a+, 2nd 6c, 3rd 7b. Approx heights 20m, 15m, 10m.

Easy climbing up to bouldery section through black water marked rock

Pitch 1) 6c, 2) 6c+, 3) 7c

Start at base of corner crack. 2/3 pf the way up take left line of bolts traversing above the roof (crux) in a great position. (Continuing straight is 6c Il castello dei ladini)

An easier finish to colz 5.0 that continues straight up instead of left

The bolts branching off on the right near the top is an easier finish (Panta Rei 7a+)

Start up Menhir, branch off right about 3/4 of the way up passing the loweroff for abbasso le moto

1. 6c, 2) 7b. There is an easier finish branching off right from the 2nd pitch (7a)

1. 7a+ 2) 7a+ 3) 7b

Start as for la giostra magica, after a few metres branch off right. 1) 7a+ 2) 7b

After 2nd bolt climb heads right around some loose ish rock before reaching the first pitch anchor. 2nd pitch crux is right off the anchors, recommend linking pitches (70m rope and a couple of extenders for first pitch) to avoid clunky fall on 2nd pitch.

Seepage through the roof

Seepage through the roof

FH's. Crosses through spiriti and ends at anchirs for supernova. Start seeps.

Links meteora into spiriti nelle tenebre. Start up meteora, branching off left (RBs) halfway up before joining into spiriti up through big flakes up into bulge and anchors. A good way to avoid the wet sections of spiriti.

Start at base of flake just right of roof system

Wonderful climbing on good rock.

Some run outs, a single rack recommended.

A great moderate Via Ferrara. quite exposed. amazing views

It is possible to rap (30m) down to the base of the wall from the start of this route.

Rightmost route of the first group of three. Starts at the dusty ramp. Top pitch is sandbagged in guidebooks, there is a difficult bulge awaiting you.

"Perfect Arete" according to the multilingual guidebook. 6 pitches between 4 and 6a+ - the first being the cruxiest. Definitely a good day out. Tourists will stop and marvel at you - it's right on the main walking trail.

Albert Leichtfried about the route: "Full contact" is special because the route is much better than the first glance promises. The crux is to climb exclusively on ice structures and this in the M9 range - really something unique!.

The route is located below the Murfrëitturm at the Grödnerjoch on the north-west side about 100 meters left of the route "L'Ciamin" at about 2100 m. The route can be seen from the road. Approach in 15min.
