Pluta

Climbing 'Pluta' (grade 7+/8-) in the Lake Garda Mountains is an unforgettable experience that perfectly encapsulates the region's unique blend of challenging rock and stunning scenery. Located high above the shimmering lake, the route typically offers sustained, technical climbing on excellent, often sharp, grey limestone. The grade 7+/8- demands precision, endurance, and confident movement, particularly on the exposed sections where the views open up dramatically. Each pitch presents its own challenges, from intricate slab sections requiring delicate footwork to powerful overhangs testing finger strength and core stability. The exposure increases as you ascend, providing a thrilling sense of height and accomplishment. Reaching the top, you're rewarded not just by the satisfaction of having mastered a tough route, but by panoramic vistas of Lake Garda, framed by the rugged peaks and often dotted with paragliders. It's a classic Lake Garda outing: a physical test, a mental challenge, and an immersive journey into breathtaking natural beauty.
