Bavella is the Corsican massif that is renowned worldwide for its rock climbing. This guide features a selection of of more than 170 out of the 500 plus multi-pitch routes in the area.
The richness of Bavella is also expressed in the incredible diversity of geological structures. For a long time, the reputation of the massif focused on tafoni and slab climbs. But this is now changing and more and more crack routes are coming to light.
In this book, you will of course find the must-do routes, the classic climbs, but also recently established routes and rediscovered gems, as well as the Col de Bavella sport climbing site with its 200 single-pitch routes.
In addition, there are many extra anecdotes, portraits of characters in the climbing scene, historical information, etc., that transform this book into something more than just a guidebook.
Each route has a detailed description of the approach, the equipment required, and the route itself, in particular for trad routes.
In colour throughout and well illustrated with action photos.
In French and English.
