| Monfalcon di Cimoliana | [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ] |
Monfalcon di Cimoliana seen from Val Monfalcon di Forni. This is the main summit of a small dolomitic group called Monfalconi di Cimoliana that is composed by the following summits: Punta Koegel ( 2440 m ), Cima Veronica ( 2398 m ), Monfalcon di Cimoliana ( 2450 m ), Cresta del Leone ( main summit Cima Nord 2403 m ), Croda Ultima del Leone ( 2401 m ), Cima Stalla ( 2100 m ) and Cima Bianca ( 2175 ).
This is a wonderful mountain that looks just like some peaks of the south-west of the United States and offers probably the best panorama of the Dolomiti d'Oltre Piave from its summit.

The quality of the rock is good. There aren't much recent information about the climbing routes on this group, but I know that the normal route from south is about UIAA II/III. On that side there's a very difficult route through a big dihedral ( via Bianchini-Soravito, UIAA V and VI ) and another one through a series of chimneys ( via De Toni Soravito UIAA IV/V ). I think the owner of Rifugio Padova has a record of all the climbing routes of the dolomitic groups of Cridola, Monfalconi and Spalti di Toro. Anyway I'm sure that in this groups you would find a lot of routes for your taste, with the possibility to open new ones also.

Hasn't voted | Grazie alex, non abiti lontano da questi luoghi, ti consiglio di visitarli un giorno o l'altro, sono veramente di una bellezza unica, uguale e forse anche superiore a certe famose cime delle Dolomiti.
Ciao
