Rock Climbing - Traversella Italy
Kate, Kath and Roger at the Bruno Piazzi hut
A team of us headed through the Mont Blanc tunnel this weekend to climb at Traversella. Traversella is a group of south facing crags near Ivrea, the crags are situated above the Bruno Piazzi hut so you can get a great cup of coffee beofre going climbing and a beer afterwards.
Kate and I were joined by Kath Murphy and Roger Knox for Roger's birthday. We climbed some great single pitch routes on Sunday then moved onto some of the higher multipitch crags on monday. The south facing aspect allows climbing at Traversella all year round, all you need is a dry day and the sun to be out. The forecast is for loads of fresh snow over the next few days with over 60cm forecast at 1500m and snow to 600m so winter is definitley on it's way.
