ROCK CLIMBING IN THE DOLOMITES
Route "Delenda Carthago," 180 meters, 6b. It's a modern-style route, generously bolted, and perfect for climbing on a cool autumn morning due to its south-facing orientation.

The Dolomites feature a vast number of climbing routes, including multi-pitch traditional climbs, sport climbing routes, and via ferratas. The routes vary in difficulty, length, and style, catering to climbers of different abilities and preferences.
Looking for climbing routes in the Dolomites in the middle of October, with a slightly unstable weather forecast, we came across this little gem located on the first tower of Sella.
This formation has some beautiful routes, relatively short, ranging from 150 to 200 meters, with quick approaches and descents.
We decided to climb the route "Delenda Carthago," 180 meters, 6b. It's a modern-style route, generously bolted, and perfect for climbing on a cool autumn morning due to its south-facing orientation.
The route is on excellent rock, well-equipped, and a joy to climb. With just a few quickdraws and some cams for the first pitch, you can climb this route.
Approach: 15 minutes
Difficulty: 6b
Length: 180 meters
Gear: 11 quickdraws / some cams for the first pitch
Descent: 30 minutes walking and a 20-meter rappel
It's an excellent route and a great option for a day with unstable and cold weather. Its short approach, well-equipped and rappelable anchors, and quick descent make it ideal for those days when the weather is uncertain.
Remember to always prioritize safety, respect the environment, and enjoy the stunning beauty and unique challenges that rock climbing in the Dolomites has to offer!
Pedraforca is one of the mountains with the most myths and legends in existence.

I had a great day climbing in Montserrat with Santiago. He picked a great route that was fun and challenging without being overwhelming. I improved my multipitch skills and got to see some beautiful scenery and interesting rock. Santiago was very knowledgeable and helpful, and most importantly is a fun person to spend a day with. I'd highly recommend booking a climb if you're in the area!
My goal coming to Spain was to get out for a couple days rock climbing with my family. I’m a fairly accomplished climber but the mechanics of trying to take the family out on my own. Mariano our guide was the perfect example of what a guide should be, he was quick to set up and take down the climbs, had the perfect eye for challenging but achievable routes for the family, was friendly, great with the kids, a just an all around good guy. I can’t recommend this company enough, and am already planning my return trip to Spain to climb with them.
(Translated by Google) I did the Initiation Course with Santiago, and it was an unforgettable experience! Dynamic, with a lot of practice. The difficult makes it easy! Then, the Tutored Rock Climbs have been really useful, full of emotion, SAFETY (one of the most emphasized topics). SOUTHCLIMB's work IS excellent, you feel personalized, you have fun while you learn, you get answers to doubts and/or questions very quickly. The routes where you will go climbing have wonderful landscapes !! Full of charm! I super-recommend it!!!
(Original) Hice el Curso de Iniciación con Santiago, y fué una experiencia inolvidable!, dinámico, con mucha práctica . Lo difícil lo hace fácil! Luego, las Escaladas Tuteladas en Roca han sido realmente útiles, llenas de emoción, de SEGURIDAD ( una de los tema que más recalca). El trabajo de SOUTHCLIMB ES excelente , lo sientes personalizado, te diviertes al mismo tiempo que aprendes, las respuestas a las dudas y/o preguntas las obtienes muy rápido. Las vías donde irás a escalar tienen paisajes maravillosos !! Llenos de encanto! Lo súper-recomiendo!!!
(Translated by Google) It has been a pleasure to do the via Larga climbing course with Santi. We learned a lot and had a great time both days. Santi has been like a friend and teacher. Soon we will return to do more courses with you. Gasss
