Description Suggest change

Beautiful granite pyramid outside the normal itineraries of Valle Dell'Orco

Getting There Suggest change

From Rosone, take the tiny/steep/narrow/sketchy road up to Vallone di Piantonetto towards San Giacomo. Drive through San Giacomo, and continue along the road towards the Teleccio dam. Pass a bridge, and keep left at the fork, following the road to an old cable car station. Park at the old cable car station. The Scoglio di Mroz should be clearly visible from the parking lot.

note - there are 2 or 3 old cable car stations in Piantonetto Valley (we parked at the wrong one and spent hours wondering why we couldn't find the massive granite pyramid in the trees). The correct one will be near/above treeline, towards the far end of the valley, just short of the dam. Scoglio di Mroz should be clearly visible.

On foot, follow the steep trail towards Scoglio Di Mroz. The trail twists its way up to the base, with a bit of scrambling at the end to reach the base. Alternatively, walk directly up the gully that leads to the base of the wall. To get to the base of the wall, there's a bit of steep dirt/mud and some 3rd/4th class scrambling (typically equipped with fixed ropes).
