Giuliano Cameroni and Bernd Zangerl in Valle dell'Orco

Step into the quiet granite corridors of Italy’s Valle dell’Orco with Giuliano Cameroni and Bernd Zangerl in this mellow, intimate climbing short. Built around Bernd’s long relationship with the valley since 2013, the film follows him as he shares the place he helped shape and explores its most classic lines, guiding Giuliano through the character and rhythm of this peaceful corner of the Alps. What makes this worth your time is its calm, deliberate focus on movement, stone, and problem-solving rather than hype. You’ll get a clear sense of why Valle dell’Orco has become a modern trad-and-bouldering sanctuary, capped by a look at the area’s standout challenge: the tricky “Gran Paradiso” (~8c). It’s a concise hit of inspiration—equal parts travel, mastery, and the simple joy of trying hard on beautiful rock.
