Like a light shining in the darkness, Arco is the arrival point for all climbers. Arco is the name we all know no matter where we come from. At Arco it is possible to climb almost all year round, and the rock is a gem.

At Arco there is the Rock Master and the highest concentration of climbing shops in Europe, just as good if not better than Chamonix and maybe even Yosemite. And there is also the most spectacular ice cream ever tasted by a climber (to the envy of both Chamonix and Yosemite). But Arco is also the point of departure: the window opening on to the Sarca Valley, our mother rock par excellence and all her sisters.
