1992 | Route setter:
Arnaud Petit & Stéphane Husson Petit explains: "In 1992 we had little experience at establishing new routes and we couldn't on-sight harder that 7c+, which generally meant that we couldn't equip a pitch adequately if it was harder that 7b+, but nevertheless we attempted the route ground-up. We needed numerous days to climb six short pitches and, apart from some sections on pitch 3, the route was estabilished using aid, climbing from one bolt to the next. The difficulties were such that we simply couldn't do anything else." |

Selected from the hundreds of known, documented multi-pitch routes located on the island’s crags and cliffs, this guidebook describes 110 routes of all levels, from pure trad to fully-bolted and everything in between. They are scattered across all massifs in Corsica except Bavella, for which a specific topo guide has been created (the Bavella-Corsica guidebook). This extensive geographical coverage allows wandering climbers to go in search of varied climbing styles, surroundings and fun, and for climbers based in a specific location to find suitable muti-pitch routes close at hand.
Of course the guidebook features the key, famous routes, but also contains newly-established routes and rediscovered gems. Our aim has been to give as reliable and precise information as possible for each route. We provide a photo with the route traced onto it, details of the walk-in, the necessary gear and a precise description, particularly for trad routes. We have also set aside space in the guidebook for a large number of photos, to give you a taste of what is to come in your next vertical adventures.
