Veneto Region Rock Climbing Guide
MONTE ALTORE CLIMBING AREA | PADOVA PROVINCE
Located in the Euganei hills south of Padova this small site offers around 25 sport routes. The routes are spread over three small sectors with the Lower rock wall being the primary sector. The climbing is in the lower mid grades and the setting is relaxing, however this location does seem to be popular on the weekends. There are plenty of great small places to enjoy a nice lunch or dinner eating foods from the local area. The area is just above the town of Teolo which can be reached by public transportation. There are several great walks and mountain bike trails in the area. Do not leave food out due to the wild boar.
