for Free Climbers: climbing on Garda
Lake, Valpolicella The lake is well known to free climbers for its natural and plunging
rocks. From Malerba
del Garda , Garda , Marciaga, Toscolano Maderno, Gargnano,
Campione, Limone, Torbole, Nago down to the
Valpolicella’s Sant’Ambrogio. In Arco, where the international climbing contest of Rock Master takes
place in September, you’ll find everything you might miss in your equipment
at the local climbing shop. There are a lot of climbing routes from single
pitch to 300m long in a wide range of grades. In a superb pre-alp scenery,
climbing is possible almost all year, altough the best time is spring and
autumn. The most popular crags are quite crowded: Massone, San Siro, Nago,
Passo S. Giovanni, but they offer so many climbing routes that everyone
has space enough. If you are looking for grades between 4 and 6a Stallavena near
Verona and Marciaga near the village Garda are a good choice, with
enough routes for many days. Most of the best crags are located less than half of an hour drive from Arco, having or renting a car is highly recommended.
