The latest new addition in the Lys valley, once again crafted by none other than Davide “Menga” Frachey. Two multi-pitch routes had already been bolted on this wall. Then, thanks to the selection trials for a course for aspiring Aosta Valley mountain guides, coupled with Davide's tireless passion, a truly unmissable sector has been born, characterised by remarkably compact rock. The aspect of the wall is ideal for climbing even on the warmest summer mornings. Helmets are recommended.
