Malga Peziè de Parù, Baita Il Cervo, bar-restaurant of the Hotel Argentina
This crag is located in a wooded area along the road from Cortina to Passo Giau and the walls are visible from Malga Peziè de Parù. The climbing area is located at 1,610-1,660 metres and faces north, is sheltered by the forest and is exposed to the sun in the morning and therefore very rarely humid. The ideal period to visit is the summer season (May-October). This is one of the first climbing areas in Cortina, second only to that of Béco d'Ajàl, and with the highest number of routes: there are more than 80 pitches classed as medium-easy (grades 4 to 7c, most of the routes being grade 6). The climbing area is therefore suitable for beginners and also for children. The wall was identified and fully climbed by Scoiattolo Diego Ghedina “Tomas” in the early 1990s. The pitches are of varying lengths, up to a maximum of 30 metres, so a 70 m rope is recommended. The rock is porous dolomite, very much worked by water and very solid, and is mainly on vertical walls. The pitons are close, suitable for beginners or for the first practice of the season.
Approach: from Cortina proceed in the direction of Passo Giau-Passo Falzarego and at Pocol, after Hotel Argentina take the SP638 road in the direction of Passo Giau. After about 3 km, at the end of the first set of five narrow hairpin bends, park on the left in a small clearing. Take a level path on the other side of the road and follow it for about 400 metres through dense forest: in five minutes you will reach the wall.
