This magnificent cave has some excellent steep routes on some great featured rock. Polifemo is the popular hard route although Alfredo Alfredo will rival it when re-bolted. The sun arrives here in mid afternoon and the cave is sheltered from the wind. The upper sections will get wet if it rains. Guidebook page 17.
