Climbing the 'Via Plaisir' (grade 6-/UIAA V+) on Cima Capi, overlooking Val di Ledro and Lake Garda, is a truly classic experience for any climber. This route perfectly embodies its name, offering 'plaisir' (pleasure) climbing on fantastic limestone. The south-facing aspect ensures plenty of sun, and the views across Lake Garda are simply breathtaking, making every pitch a joy. Graded at 6- (equivalent to UIAA V+), it's an accessible yet rewarding multi-pitch route, typically well-equipped with bolts, making it suitable for climbers looking for an enjoyable and relatively relaxed day out without extreme demands. The climbing is varied, featuring slabs, cracks, and sometimes small vertical sections, all on solid rock. It's an excellent choice for intermediate climbers or those wanting to savour the beauty of the Dolomites' pre-alps. The approach is generally straightforward, and the descent often involves a pleasant walking path, completing a memorable vertical adventure.
