Tips and suggestions
Wide selection of sectors located close to each other along the north side of the picturesque Pioraco gorge. The south exposure would make it a winter climbing spot, but in that season the walls stay in the shade. However, the wind channeled through the gorge makes it possible to visit in summer. The rock is very beautiful, and the dominant style is technical slab.
Roadbook
It is possible to park in the small village. After leaving the car, follow the Franciscan Path westward along the river.
After a few minutes, you can notice a scree on the right with a trail leading up to the base of the wall.
