Information about the Finlandia climbing route on the Torre Grande at Cinque Torri

The route was opened in 1959 by W. Gstrein and M. Jokinen. It features a short but extremely intense itinerary on a yellow and grey rock vertical face. After a one- length approach, first we climb a fabulous 40-meter corner; then we continue with the key length featuring a hanging traverse to be negotiated with the help of small holes. The route continues with overhanging cracks, vertical slabs and roofs up to the top of the tower.

The route unfolds in five lengths on great and solid rock for an elevation gain of 120 meters. The climb has VII maximum difficulty rating. We negotiate the return climbing down with several double-rope rappels on the Normal route.
