The site is devoted to sport climbing, with routes of varying grades. The sectors include the Paretone and Il Vicolo. A stream runs at the foot of some walls. When there is water the start of some routes can be difficult. It is therefore worth checking the state of the routes and bolts and the condition of the stream, as well as the weather.
