Description
“Traversa” is a distinctive two-pitch mixed climb of about 90 m, traversing diagonally across the rock along a natural ramp.
It has a technical and exposed character, with moderate difficulty (5b) but a strong emphasis on careful placement of natural protection.
Fixed protection is minimal (3 bolts total), while there are many opportunities for placing friends and nuts.
There are no fixed belays — anchors are built on natural features.
The rock is excellent, and the route offers impressive views over the gorge and the sea.
