Valmalenco is the realm of serpentinite, more commonly serpentine. It is a metamorphic rock, the result of a long and deep transformation of preexisting rocks (peridotites). It exhibits very striking shapes and shades of color. In fracture it has an iridescent green color, while on the surface it changes from gray-green, to bright pearl gray, to red in all its shades, even touching yellow and black. The Zoia crag is certainly one of the most beautiful high altitude climbing structures in Valtellina. It presents a nice concentration of high difficulty routes alternating with sectors with more accessible routes, for everyone. The whole area is dedicated to Massimo Bruseghini "Vigneron."
