NANI - MARISI

The "Nani-Marisi" route whas opened in the summer of 1974 by Alfredo Diaz and Hernán Llanos, two classic climbers of that time. The last one was known as "Nani" who unfortunately died by the lightning strike in the summit of Peña Santa. His friends renamed the route opened in the Naranjo and called it ´Nani-Marisi¨ in honor of Hernán Llanos. 

It has become one of the classic routes in Picu Urriellu and in all Picos de Europa. It´s a great alpine route.

It´s an itinerary of slabs and dihedrals, with poor equipment and difficult protection, but with the great quality roc typical of Picu Urriellu. It´s a route where its very important to have a good climbing technique , as well as the physical condition.It´s perfect for those climbers and mountaineers who wants to do longer and alpine routes. The frist two easy pitches will make us win meters and verticality as long as we climb, then we will start to find good wholes that makes the climb easier and beautiful aswell. The last pitch will take us to the final and sharped ridge where we will make a small rappel to the amphitheater of the south face, where we will continue walking and doing small IIIº grade climb to the summit of Picu Urriellu
