Climbing "Via Porci con le ali" (6+) on Monte Colt - San Paolo Nord is a classic Arco experience. The route, whose name translates to "Pigs with Wings," offers a challenging but rewarding ascent up surprisingly solid limestone. Expect sustained technical climbing, particularly around the crux, which typically involves delicate footwork and thoughtful crimp management. While the protection is generally good, there can be some runouts in between bolts, demanding confident climbing. The views from the route are spectacular, overlooking the Sarca Valley and Lago di Garda. It's a popular route, so be prepared for potential queues, especially during peak season. The descent is straightforward via an easy path, making it a great choice for a day of multi-pitch climbing in Arco.
