Boulder

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). We spent the day tackling several routes, enjoying both the challenge and the excitement of climbing in nature. The weather was perfect and we had fun pushing on the rocks, enjoying the beautiful scenery and peaceful atmosphere of the valley. It was a fun and relaxing day, but I look forward to going back, this time more prepared....
