Alpe Devero: on the Rossa, Esmeralda, Crampiolo and Cornera walls, all kinds of climbing and difficulty levels have opened over the years routes, both bolt (spit) and trad. Exposed to the sun or in the shade, to the north or to the west, there really are some great places to go even on hotter days.
The most convenient sector to reach is the Bastionata della Rossa and Punta Esmeralda: here the routes are modest in length, at most 200 metres, and the rock is always in excellent condition.
On the Punta della Rossa, the symbolic peak of the area, you can’t help but climb the classic south-east corner, which is a real “must”. In recent years, however, some beautiful bolt routes have been created, all on excellent rock and with varying difficulty levels.
You can climb on Punta della Rossa from early summer to late autumn, paying close attention to storms, which are not uncommon in this part of Alpe Devero: the iron-rich rock and the mountain’s formation make it an ideal lightning conductor.
