The Cassin on the north-east face of Badile is, perhaps, the most significant classic rock route in the central Alps
On this itinerary you feel small, very small, surrounded by a large sea of granite slabs.
Lightness of mind, light equipment and speed are the keys to having fun on this legendary itinerary which has around 22 pitches, grade III to VI.
The satisfaction on top is unspeakable and finally, up there, you can relax, the descent towards Gianetti will not be a problem...

The landscape behind the climbers is severe!
Along the most challenging pitches of Cassin, leaded by Francesco, the arrival of the fog is a little unsettling...
