per roccette on stones and gravels Explanation: I quote: Quando la roccia molto frastagliata e non particolarmente verticale permette di progredire senza l'utilizzo del cavo metallico sfruttando i molteplici appigli presenti In two words: free climbing Though, a literal translation is "on stones" and frequently associated to gravel/gravels.

bouldering Explanation: It means climbing on small rocks/boulders. I have google "roccetta". I think it is a small rock or boulder (according to what I have found in several Italian websites). Here are 2 examples: 1. "leghi le piante a una roccetta." 2. "con una bella spiaggia privata, chiusa da roccette." I am adding here some information that I have found in 2 English websites that deal with bouldering. 1. "Traditionally, bouldering - climbing on small rocks - was practiced as a training or experimental regimen for longer climbs." www128.pair.com/r3d4k7/ModernBouldering.html 2. "low level climbing on small rocks/boulders, without ropes and gear." www.imageadventure.co.uk/sagas/RockClimbing.html Reference: http://www.freeforumzone.com/viewmessaggi.aspx?f=3295&idd=47...
