Frantoio
A nice quiet crag up in the hills with a lovely approach through a near deserted village. The cliff has a nice selection of quality routes on compact rock. It is south facing so best in the cooler months. Route names are written at the bottom of the crag.
Follow the SP14 from Martinetto through the village of Nasino to a right turn that leads to the small village of Vignolo. Park here and follow the path that leads north east from the road through the village to the church. Go round this, then turn right and follow the path until it is possible to turn left, then right (follow the cairns) up through the wood to the base of the crag. About 20 minutes from the parking.
