Our winter holiday is turning slowly but surely into a spring climbing holiday. Instead of snowboarding we decided to check out one of the nearby crag that we visited once during the last summer. Hot topic of the day is Croz de le Niere.
Croz de le Niere has easy to access and offers good rock. Crag has total of five sectors from grades 4-8 so its a pretty nice place to visit for any level of climber. You can read more about it when we visited it the first time during the last summer.
Croz de le Niere seems to be also good for early spring climbing. When compared to Coltura, Croz de le Niere is not as hot and some of the routes start to turn in to the shadows earlier in the afternoon. Still the location remains warm, today the temperature was about 17 celsius degrees. Some of the sectors may be in the shadows sooner and few may stay under sun shine for almost the whole day.
We had some good climbing, but be aware of the bolting. Some of the older routes may have more distant bolting. Lot of routes start also from the middle of the wall as a second pitch. Belaying can be done from a comfortable hatch so second climber can bring some water and snack if you are planning to climb more routes from the middle.
