How to get there

Pont-Saint-Martin highway exit. Turn left towards Donnas. After the town, leave your car in the parking lot immediately after the round about.

Wall access: from the parking lot near the Roman road take the stone staircase with a chain rail near the beginning of Donnas. Follow the path. The first wall is 5 minutes down the road and the base of the most popular sector is 5 more minutes down.

The Biellesi wall is named after the fact that the wall was bolted by climbers from Biella. The wall is vertical in the first sector and steep in the second. Its success is due to the beauty of its routes and the fact that it is a good workout for average to expert climbers.


Description of the route

Holds are mostly crimps and jugs but there are also backhand and vertical holds, everything you need for an athletic and technical climb. Bolting is good with resin pitons in crags and fixes on vertical routes. Be careful of the exposed natural ledge at the base.

The activity requires technical experience. Alpine guide assistance is recommended.

Descent: Stops have chains and belays and climbers abseil down on 60 meter cords.

Difficulty from 5c to 8c, average 7b. Average length is 25 meters with a minimum of 18 and maximum of 27 meters.

Total number of routes: 31
