There's stacks of chuffing to be done in the Valle D'Aosta, not sure about known bouldering though  :shrug:

Talking about NW Italy, has anyone been around Cuneo, especially Val di Gesso ?

I've had a look at cuneoclimbing.it, but any comments would be good - considering the area for a family holiday.

well there turned out to be rock everywhere unsurprisingly, loads of decent size blocs mostly untouched by the looks of things.
