05 Jan Ice – Macugnaga

 
Here the photo of the icefalls of Macugnaga, the nice Walser town at the foot of Monte Rosa.
 
Burchi 1 – 50m + 40m easy – WI 4  
Burchi 2 –  120m WI 3/3+  
Superburchi 100m WI 4  
Candela (free standing) Walser 100m WI 5/5+ on the right of the vertical section of Superburchi. 
 
Approach to the sector Burchi:  30/40 min from the parking lot of the chair lift Belvedere: first go down to the left (east – skating rink) to a brigde, cross the valley, then again keep west on the route, then on path until to reach the icefalls.  It is also possible to ride up on chair lift and then descent on the right (useful ski) to the icefalls.
 
For Candela Walser Be very careful of big ice-blocks fall
