Covolo has some of the Veneto's hardest climbs. The cliff sets, in an out of the way area, above the towns of Thiene and Schio. The area has become better known in the past 5 years, due to a few of the locals participating in the World Cup events and thus bringing new climbers to try thier favorite routes. The cliff sits in a quite location and it's overhanging wall offers over 50 routes that are 7a and above. Try to visit during your peak, there are many great lines to try.
