The Pellice Valley offers numerous opportunities for those who love rock climbing, from the cliffs and walls of the mid-valley , ideal especially in the spring and autumn among chestnut and beech forests, to the summer sectors of the Conca del Prà and the mountains of the upper valley. Beginners and experts alike can choose from single-pitch routes, multi-pitch routes, and mountaineering itineraries , with options ranging in difficulty and challenge.
Despite not having large glaciers or 4.000-meter peaks, the upper Pellice Valley is surrounded by rocky, rugged, and rarely visited mountains , many of which reach or exceed 3.000 meters. This environment is particularly suited to mountaineering, although generally not extremely difficult, yet capable of offering beautiful adventures on ridges, rock faces, and wild terrain.
In this section you will find a selection of climbing and mountaineering itineraries in Val Pellice , with useful information to help you choose the route best suited to your level, the time of year, and the type of experience you are looking for.
MIDDLE VALLEY
From the cliffs of Luserna and Rorà to the walls of Torre Pellice, Angrogna, and Villar Pellice , all the way to the wild Vallone degli Invincibili , the middle-lower part of the valley offers numerous climbing opportunities, especially in spring and autumn. There are single-pitch and multi-pitch routes , with widely varying exposures and difficulties, often nestled in the woods or on walls easily accessible from the valley floor.
UPPER VALLEY
As you ascend towards Bobbio Pellice and the head of the valley , the climbing gradually gives way to a more mountaineering environment . The Conca del Prà offers interesting walls and routes in the summer season, while mountains like Agugliassa, Monte Granero, Monte Manzol, and Palavas offer itineraries on rock, ridges, and adventure terrain , often rarely visited and immersed in the wild scenery of the upper Pellice Valley.
