"Amazzonia" - Piccolo Dain/Parete del Limaro
Are you looking for an entertaining half-day activity and the option for more multi-pitch routes?
Then you should study this route suggestion more closely...
Amazzonia is a well-protected sport climbing route, paired with an unusually short approach and a quick and enjoyable descent.
The route is in the west face of Parete del Limaro, very easy to find and - except for the initial traverse pitches - extremely consistent and refreshing! However, the 9th pitch stands out clearly due to its prolonged technical difficulties and leaves lasting impressions!
The route is excellently protected with old, cemented pitons - which can be easily found every 2-6m. The belay stations are always on two fixed points; no mobile protection is necessary!
After completing it, you can directly append the "Le Strane Voglie di Amelie", which is only a few minutes' walk from the exit of the just climbed route...
The descent to Sarche is easy to find; the charming path leads directly into the valley. From there, you can immediately start on the next of the total 10 routes on this wall to make the most of your day!
A beautiful and rewarding climbing route with grippy slab sections and a tricky crux. A lucrative part-time pleasure for easy-going sport climbers!

Hosteria ToblinoSafety information
Despite the many ascents, rockfall - especially from preceding rope teams - is continually a major issue on this wall! Much rubble still lies on the ledges and bands...
Otherwise, a top route with perfect protection and partly chain anchors!
Extremely short approach and comfortable descent via a hiking path.
Rappelling down the route is NOT recommended!
