Monte Garzo ****

“Alhambra”, next to Polenta and Merlot, is a Ticino classic! This is high on the wish list of many, and therefore, very popular. If you still want to make it back in time for drinks and save your headlamp batteries, it is smart to start early. Strength, endurance, and a good head are key to tackling the 18 pitches in a timely manner. Recommended prep or warm up routes for these extremely technical slab moves can be found on the Pinocchio Slabs. Again, it was Häns Müller who explored, found, cleaned and equipped these climbs over days and weeks of intensive work.
