Restricted Access

The Gorge is currently out of bounds officially since storm Vaia in October 2018 destroyed the road through the gorge. You can gain access from Malga Ciapela  but this is neither legal nor without danger.

The Sottoguda gorge is easily accessible. From Belluno drive up the Cordevole valley past Agordo, Alleghe and Caprile and continue as for Passo Fedaia. Before reaching Malga Ciapela turn off the main road and enter into Sottoguda. Drive through this village to where the road ends at the beginning of the gorge. Continue on foot to arrive swiftly at the base of the first waterfalls.

70m, 2 pitches. This starts up the obvious cascade as you walk into the first bowl of the gorge. The first pitch is often climbed in its own right and forms very steep ice, which is often pocketed and interesting to climb. Once up this initial steep section climb easily to a tree where there is an abseil/top roping sling. For the next pitch, either take a lefthand fall more easily or climb the column up to the right to trees at the top.

Abseil the route.
