VALLE DELL'ORCO
From Trad to sport climbing in Orco Valley
September 21, 2010
This guide book describes the walls of Valle dell’Orco, from its crags to the legendary walls of Sergent and Caporal, ending with Colle del Nivolet. The many routes opened over the past few years and the increase in visits to the valley, especially by foreigners, convinced the author to write a book which is not a simple guide with grades and names of routes, but also the source of inspiration for new generations. This book suggests a path to follow, a possible direction for climbing without forgetting the past. Maurizio Oviglia with his customary precision and clarity has listed all the old and new itineraries of the valley, after repeating almost all of them and verifying their grade.

GPS mapping, which has by now become a habit while driving, is also becoming a popular aid for moving around in the mountains. First of all it was the world of mountain bikes, but trekking and mountaineering are now discovering the practical and safety aspects of assistance from GPS technology.
This is why Versante Sud and Garmin have joined forces to start the impressive work of mapping the itineraries covered in mountain guide books. We want to give everyone the chance not to get lost, to easily find the start of a route or the path to reach a crag in order to enjoy their adventure fully.
This guide book is part of this project.
