The Sora crag "Rava Rossa"

The Sora crag, locally known as “Rava Rossa,” is located at an altitude of 400 meters, nestled in the woods on the eastern side of Mount San Casto

The crag is divided into three sectors, although the first sector, The Pillars, is the most frequently visited. The second one, The Smooth Plaques, is a clean and recently re-equipped area that offers several beautiful and interesting climbing routes, therefore certainly worth much more attention than it currently receives. Due to the height of the walls in both the first and second sectors, the crag features not only single-pitch routes but also some multi-pitch routes. In total, there are about 60 routes, with difficulty levels ranging from 4 to 7b+. Thanks to the constant care and maintenance provided over the years by some members of CAI (the Italian Alpine Club) of Sora, many routes have been re-bolted, with chains and carabiners having been replaced to ensure safety. Due to its eastern exposure, creating shade from 1:30 p.m. (daylight saving time) onwards and its geographical location, Rava Rossa is best suited as a summer climbing destination.
