  • Cinque Torri (5 Torri) in the Italian Dolomites is one of the best rock climbing spots in Europe. In this rock climbing video, I will introduce you to Cinque Torri in the Italian Dolomites and talk about what multi pitch routes and why you should visit this spectacular place in the Italian Dolomites next to Tofana de Rozes. And if you watch the full rock climb-ing video I will share a few tips about accommodation close to Cinque Torri, so you are not consuming all of your time approaching
    Cinque Torri is a series of rock towers located just south of Passo Falzarego above Cortina d’Ampezzo. Even though Cinque Torri means ‘Five Towers’, there are actually several more - Torre Grande being the largest one. Here you will find over 150 multipitch rock climbing routes and sport climbing routes! The multipitch are rather short and usually no more than between 50 to 150 meters. Due to the short routes, Cinque Torri in the Italian Dolomites, is a great place if you are a beginner looking for building multipitch skill or if your time in the Italian Dolomites is limited.
    Most rock climbing routes at Cinque Torri (5 Torri) are mixed trad within grade III to VII, but there are also fully bolted sport climbing routes up to French 7b. Therefore the multipitch climbing routes are very beginner friendly. Most of the multipitch routes at Cinque Torri (5 Torri) are equipped with pitons or are scarcely bolted, so I would really recommend to bring a small rack of cams
    The classical rock climbing routes at Cinque Torri (5 Torri) are Via Myriam, Diretta Dimai and Via Finlandia on Torre Grande, but there are numerous other really great climbs.
    If you are looking for longer, harder multipitch rock climbing routes then you should probably consider climbing the Tofana di Rozes overlooking the Cinque Torri from the North. Or you should consider going to Marmolada or Tre Cime di Lavaredo.
    In terms of accommodation there are two refugio’s close by. Refugio Scoiattoli and Rifugio Cinque Torri. Since it is illegal to camp in the Dolomites outside camping sites you should consider staying at one of these to minimize approach. You can park your car at Baita Bai de Dones and hike up or take the skiflift. Or you can drive up the extremely narrow road to Rifugio Cinque Torri, but there are not many parking spots here and it is very hard to make a u-turn.
    If you have enjoyed watching this rock climbing video about Cinque Torri (5 Torri) in the Italian Dolomites, then you should also consider watching some of the other rock climbing videos that I have done from the Italian Dolomites!
    And leave a comment below if you have some insights about other great sport climbing crags around the Italian Dolomites.

      Hi,
      I climb in the Cairngorm mountains near Aviemore in Scotland.
      I'm hoping to get my first winter route in on Ben Nevis this year, weather permitting.
      There's a great Crag on the outskirts of Edinburgh where I live , called Traprain Law. It's great for an evening climb after work 40min drive from my house

      Nice! 😄 I climbed at Coire an t-Sneachda a few years back. We did The Runnel, Aladdins Mirror Direct and Fluted Buttress Direct 😄 That was good fun!

      Excellent!.... i know those routes too.
      I am very much a novice in Trad/sport/winter climbing. That's why your vlogs are amazing to watch. They fill my wife and I with ideas and places to go climbing next.
      We're off to Saas-Fee next year to do our first 4000m the Allalinhorn with the International School of mountaineering.
      Your vlogs will continue to fill our minds with inspiration until late we go👍🗻

    Thanks for showing us another awesome location! :) I always feel like bringing a small rack on any multipitch even tho the guidebook says it's fully bolted, cause you never know! Haven't done that many sport multipitch routes tho, so it might just be a habit from trad:)

    • @Cragcloud
      @Cragcloud  Před 5 lety +1

      Haha, well I can definitely echo what you are saying! We climbed the Via Cinquentenario GAM on Sass Campiac, which was supposed to be a sport multi-pitch, but with two to four bolts on some of the pitches that is probably a stretch 🤔
