Nibbio ****

Pioneers like Riccardo Cassin, Emilio Comici, and Carlo Mauri have left their marks here on the earliest routes up the crack systems and dihedrals up the steep NE Face. More interesting for the sport climber are the modern long (an 80m rope is often best) steep face climbs on solid rock. The vast majority of the hardware on the routes has been retrofitted, but still expect to clip some junk here and there.
