A view of the famous Sass Fendù

In the district Foppiano of Crodo there's a woodland that is famous for the many boulders that were found among the trees. In fact the area is a notorious climbing spot among bouldering climbers and the boulder "Sass Fendù" has become a symbol of this place. The valley is known for climbing since the late 90s mostly because of the many gathering and competitions that have been arranged there.
