Corno Stella Climbing School

The stunning rock monolith of Corno Stella (3051 m) offers an exceptional multipitch climbing school in the alpine heart of the Maritime Alps Natural Park. This breathtaking rocky amphitheater is formed by the Catena delle Guide, Corno Stella, and the Argentera peak, the highest elevation in this alpine sector. The rock is gneiss-granitoid, providing a distinctive and elegant climbing experience that demands balance, precision, and a mix of athletic and continuous movements. Just a few minutes from the base of Corno Stella lies Rifugio Bozano (2450 m), a historic meeting point for climbers and mountaineers since the early days of alpinism. It is a place of sport, shared experiences, and travel stories, offering an exclusive stay under the expert care of Marco, the long-time manager and guardian of this small yet legendary mountaineering haven. The program is designed for those who wish to explore multipitch climbing and alpine rock climbing. The first phase focuses on learning and refining essential skills, including knots, rope maneuvers, anchor management, rock progression techniques, and rappelling. These lessons take place on well-equipped crags and multipitch routes near the refuge. During the second phase (the last two days), participants will complete two ascents along the numerous climbing routes in the area, carefully chosen based on their skill level and prior route study. This program can also be adapted for UNDER 20 groups. Routes start from grade IV, with difficulty levels adjusted to participants' abilities.
