On the Village stage, it’s time to hear from those who live climbing every day.

Grivel brings to the stage Stefano Ragazzo and his achievement on Eternal Flame.

A solo ascent - the very first ever - of the legendary Pakistani wall, rising above 6,000 metres: this is the heart of Stefano’s story. A climber who came to the mountains without an alpine tradition behind him, building his own path through study, dedication and passion.

At Rock Master, Stefano opens up both as a man and as a mountaineer: from office worker to mountain professional. He’ll talk about how he first started climbing, his early solo routes in the Dolomites, and how climbing alone is different from tackling standard routes.

The talk will also include the presentation of his film about the Pakistan expedition: Eternal Solo.
