Outdoors

During the summer I did not have much time for climbing or outdoor activities because of university exams and work on my thesis. But finally September is over and with it my last exams. Meanwhile, a friend told me about a climbing festival in Piemonte, the Valle Orco Climbing Festival. It sounded great, so I decided to join him. We planned to stay from Friday night to Sunday night. As soon as i finished my last exam on Friday afternoon, we set out and arrived in Ceresole Reale the same evening....

I went bouldering at Rio Tinello with a friend, and it was our first time climbing outdoors. The area is located near Chiarone, in Val Tidone (Piacenza).

Soon we reached a meadow called Pianone, where cows were quietly grazing....

The day before the hike, I was in the mood for a via ferrata climb, and I remembered that there were two routes near Lago Nero. It had been quite a while since I last hiked in the Piacenza area, so I decided to revisit the region. I found a great trail starting from Rocca d’Aveto that would take me to the summit of Monte Roncalla via the first ferrata, the Adolfo Ferrari....
