climbing guidebook Ossola Rock / Klettergärten

Ossola Rock - due to the constant increasing number of routes in the Ossola area, the authors have decided to publish two climbing guides for Ossola. One for the short routes/climbing gardens in the area and one - still in preparation - for the multi-pitch routes.
This guidebook covers the climbing crags in the Ossola area, including new climbing areas in the Verbano-Cusio-Ossola region, primarily Torraccia, Il Castello al Passet and La Cascata, as well as important extensions to classic areas such as Ponte Romano. There are also new trad areas such as Ossolandia, which is a good alternative to the well-known rock faces of Yosesigo and Cadarese.
But there are also the classic areas of Macugnaga, Simplon, Croveo, Formazza and Vigezzo. And yes, we also bring back the one or other forgotten wall. With its multitude of routes and variety of rock faces, this region is now known far beyond the Italian border.
That's why the new guides are also available in German and, with up-to-date photos and a very user-friendly layout, we warmly invite you to share the joy of all these areas with us.
