Description

A classic plaisir route with a sporty feel, offering a sustained climb on consistently graded terrain. The rock is very good and well-cleaned by frequent ascents, making this line a local classic. Protection is solid throughout, especially on the crux sections, allowing for an enjoyable and relatively safe lead.

From Passo Giau or Malga Giau, follow trail 436 up to Forcella Giau, then traverse to the base of the big yellow wall. The route starts roughly in the middle of the face, marked by the route name at the toe of the wall. A true gem to climb on sunny summer and autumn days, surrounded by a stunning alpine panorama.

DESCENT

From the summit, follow the ridge trending northeast to a first notch, where red markers indicate the abseil anchors (4 rappels of about 25 m each).

After the rappels, contour along the base of the wall back to the start of the route (around 1.5 hours).

Current route state

Dal rif. Lagazuoi si scende alla Forcella del Lagazuoi e si continua a scendere fino ad incrociare il sentiero 20b. Da questo si traversa sotto la cresta nord ovest del Lagazuoi Grande e quindi si sale alla Forcella Granda, da cui si raggiunge il vicino Bivacco Della Chiesa, posto nei pressi dell’attacco della ferrata.

Ascent description

Immediately after the vertical attack and once passed the smooth horizontal traverse (double rope) placed under a cliff, continue for vertical walls and exposed to the middle area of the part.

You then move left for tracks, until a crossroads from where you continue to climb to the vertical right-hand lobbies (the left ropes lead to the Alta Val di Fanes).

Giunti ad un terrazzino si affrontano una serie di pareti che conducono alla cresta da cui, superata un’ultima verticale placca, per facili rocce si giunge alla cima.

Descent description

Si scende con funi fisse lungo il più facile ma ripido percorso attrezzato che percorre il versante nord est fino alla Selletta Fanis. Quindi si discende per ghiaioni fino a Forcella Gasser de Pot dalla quale, con il sentiero 20b, si raggiunge la Forcella Travenanzes.

Da qui, segnavia 401, con discesa fino al Passo Falzarego. Alternatively, ascent to Rif. Lagazuoi and descent by cable car.
