Lario Rock Pareti is the definitive guidebook that covers the long multi-pitch rock climbing routes around Lecco on the shore of Lake Como. The multi-pitch routes covered are either fully trad or a mixture of trad with some bolts and therefore have a more mountaineering aspect to them. They can be up to 600m long.
In total 77 separate crags are described that are split into 10 major areas. These are Pareti del Lago, San Martino Medale, Grigne Meridionale, Valsassina, Campelli, Alpi Orobie Valsassinesi, Grigne Settentrionale, Resegone, Monte Berlinghera,Triangolo Lariano.
All the routes are shown on either colour phototopos or colour topo-diagrams, along with a description. Each route also has a French technical grade, pitch length and an obligatory grade if some aid is used. At the start of each crag there is a detailed location map and access information.
