Andrea Zanone Climbing Experiences: Rocklands, South Africa

The trip in South Africa was amazing, probably the best experience in my climbing career for sure. I spent one month completely in touch with a amazing and super wild enviroment and I had the opportunity to climb on a perfect rock quality and understand all the process that the professional rock climbers lived during their trips.

The pass, Rocklands Ph. Marco Zanone

Our crew was composed by Marco (my bro), Luca Rinaldi, Gabri Moroni and I.
We were extremely motivated to spent all the time possible on climbing, to be able to repeat the hardest and the more beautiful lines of Rocklands
