Big feature high up on the south flank of the valley, already visible from San Valeriano. It has been firstly exploited by Stefano Cordola a few decades ago, giving birth to a demanding sport crag. Adriano Trombetta made some further additions keeping the level high. To give an idea, lets mention that the most famous route on this crag is "Geo" an 8c line, which, at the time of its FA by Gabriele Moroni, was the most difficult route of the Valle di Susa. In most recent times, the crag became also a known spot for the trad lovers. A lot of new trad lines and green-point ascents have been established by the "Tritoni Verticali" crew, expanding the possibilities of this beautiful sunny piece of rock buried in the chestnut trees.
From Borgone di Susa, take the road for "Frazione Gandoglio". Pass the aerials' spot on top of a hill and continue up to a fork (easy to be missed) and go right. Continue ascending 1.5km or so on the narrow steep road. Where the road start to descend park and follow a big track ascneding rightwards in the wood. When the track crosses the high voltage cables, leave the track and ascned directly on a poor track up to the crag (15 minutes from the car).
