Finale Ligure, Liguria

The mountains on one side, the Mediterranean Sea on the other. Climbing with a view never felt so good.

Situated in the north-western part of Italy, Liguria benefits from both the mountains and the superb Mediterranean Sea. Climbing with a view has never felt so good.
Beginners, as well as experts, come from all over the world to test the over 3,000 crags of Finale Ligure’s area, one of the largest karst places in Italy. Limestone walls, “drop-shaped” holds, and the feeling of peace only nature can give you are the essential elements that make Finale Ligure a real climbing paradise on earth.
