Bosco Scorace Boulder
Sicily’s First & Finest
Davide discovered an unclimbed Bouldering area a few minutes drive from the B&B.A fine-grained real compact sandstone with various styles of climbing was laying under a coat of brambles in the middle of an eucalypt forest (don’t get excited, Koalas are not around).
With a lot of hard work, sweat and a help from his friends Davide managed to create Sicily’s first bouldering area, Bosco Scorace.
There are 3 main sectors with a lot of potential. Countless boulders are waiting to be freed.
We just started and we already have over 200 lines from 4a up to 8a+.
Come free some boulders, you will get to pick the name!
