New Routes at “La Moleta”, Sella

During the month of January 2016 our friend Jonathan Emett was addicted by creating new routes and added 11 routes to the crags at “La Moleta“.

As it’s his birthday today we’re going to publish the topo for sector “Solo Sunrise” where Jonathan bolted his first route here in Sella about 3 years ago.

With this new sector there are three sectors for Costa Vertical’s “Introduction to Sport Climbing” courses available on our doorstep.

A big thanks to Jonathan and happy birthday!

Sella – “La Moleta” – Topo Update

Today we are happy to release an updated “La Moleta” topo incl. the three sectors “New Year’s Day”, “Bear” and “Doggy Guantanamo”. “New Year’s Day” offers unpolished easy routes and it’s ideal for beginners and for warming up for the other sectors. The routes in “Bear” are short and therefore tricky with technical climbing on tufa blobs and slabs. “Doggy Guantanamo” offers long routes from V+ to 7b+ on high quality rock and great features. All sectors are definitely worth a visit and you can easily spend a full day or more in the area.
