Imagine a venue with sport, trad and alpine routes. All on pristine (not polished) limestone. You are thinking of Gran Sasso d'Italia, a big limestone mountain in the middle of Italy famous for its enormous pocket-infested limestone slabs. All this with Italian weather, food and wine.
We will be based at the Rifugio Cima Alta, Prati di Tivo at a cost of 50 Euros per day.
The meet is open for max. 12 persons. Prices and availability will be confirmed in January.
