As the leading Italian publishing company specializing in climbing, mountaineering and other outdoor activities including Freeride, MTB and Ice Climbing, Versante Sud works directly with local authors well known to the Italian and European climbing and outdoor sports community.

We purposefully do this to guarantee the quality, accuracy and genuineness of our guidebooks. 


We strongly support the development of our beloved sport by donating a portion of the sales to fund to improve and equip new climbing spots. 


We proudly created “Performa” handbook series geared to improve techniques and increase individual strength. Written carefully by vetted experts, these books address psychological and inner preparation for climbers.

    Eleven years ago, my partners and I decided to combine our love for climbing and the wonderful Italian mountains. Thus, came the birth of Versante Sud, a climbing, mountaineering and outdoor book publishing company. “Climb by day and write by night that is how I live!”
