It's a short but interesting and enjoyable route. The climbing style is various, and not banal in the 5th pitch, offering many evocative glimpses. It's a good choice for those who want climb many metres in winter or in autumn, when the days are short.
Some short pitches can be conveniently joined.
the rock is quite good, but you must pay attention to some rock, particularly in the last part of the ridge. Bring a helmet, quick-draws, locking carabiners, abseil equipment.
Approach
The approach is on foot: follow the path that runs along the crag. Continue through the grove, then follow backwards the downhill path of "Alberelli" abd "Il pasto nudo" routes, until you rech an obvious rocky spur (2 bolts).
Climbdown
The recommended climbdown is on foot: reach the path marked with cairns that leads you back to the start. The path shares the last section through the grove with the downhill path of "Il pasto nudo" and "Alberelli.
A more detailed report is available on the guide of Fano Adriano of the app ClimbAdvisor.
A special thanks i are owed to the route setter Paolo De Laurentis, who was assisted by the tireless Lino Di Marcello.
