A first sector (from "Thank you Silence" to "Sun and Moon") remains in the sun until about 12.30, while a second sector (from "Fotti il ​​Fotografo" to "Ecstasy") the sun goes away by 10.30 - 11. So "Ai Falconi" can be climbed all year round and even after long rains. SUGGESTED ROUTES Black Out 8a+ Cavalchina 7c Invisible Man 6c+ Sannino 7a+

Climbing Guide to the Verona Province

Guida di Arampicata Provincia di Verona

The Verona province is the third best province in the Veneto to climb after Vicenza and Belluno. There are several well developed cliffs in the Lessini mountains north of the city of Verona, sites on the eastern shores of Lago di Garda, and within the Adige valley as it runs north toward Trento. WHAT IS THE CLIMBING LIKE IN THE VERONA PROVINCE OF ITALY Most of the cliffs that have been bolted in the Verona Province are limestone that has been craved out during the Ice ages. So you will find more crimping and side pulls rather than finger pockets. Most bolted cliffs are one pitch sport climbing routes, but there is also a few multi pit routes in and Adige Valley. There is no bouldering fields in the Verona Province, but there are a few small areas to traverse and climb off the rope. Due to this lack of bouldering areas there are a few very good indoor facilities in or near Verona, the best being Kings Rock indoor gym.
