You will be climbing in a beautiful environment. You can climb in pristine forests and in a true maze of boulders located by the spectacular Verzasca river. But beware, the river may be beautiful, it is at least as dangerous. Other bouldering areas are located in scenic meadows in the proximity of typical stone houses of the Verzasca valley. These meadows are still used by farmers for gaining hay. Therefore, access to these sites is restricted in certain times of the year.
