7 Bouldering Areas in Ticino, Switzerland

Bouldering in Ticino

Ticino is a world-class bouldering mecca, famous above all for the bulletproof granite of Cresciano and Chironico, where thousands of problems attract boulderers from across the globe year after year. The style ranges from razor-sharp crimps and technical slabs to explosive overhangs and committing highballs, all on some of the finest granite in Europe. Thanks to its mild southern climate below the Alps, Ticino offers a remarkably long season, with prime friction from October through April and the possibility to boulder nearly year-round.
