Sasso di Bosconero, Mountain summit in Veneto, Italy

Sasso di Bosconero is the highest summit of the Bosconero Range, a subgroup of the southern Dolomites in Veneto, reaching 2,468 m. The range has an almost triangular outline, with the Bosconero itself to the south, Castelaz and Spiz di San Piero to the west and Sassolungo di Cibiana to the north-east. Its rocks are dolomia with marls and limestones in several colours, sometimes very evident. At its base stands the Bosconero alpine hut.

The mountain was first conquered in 1878 when a team of mountaineers led by guide Santo Siorpaes explored the route to the summit. This expedition marked the beginning of the peak's documented climbing history in the Alps.

The name Bosconero likely refers to the dark pine woods at the mountain's base. The peak appears in climbing accounts through the Antespigolo route on the west face, opened by Leonardo Pretto and Bianco De Pellegrini in 1964 and now the most repeated climb on the wall.

The main route goes up the south side, with hikers encountering rocky terrain and steep sections along the way. It is advisable to check weather conditions and scree stability before attempting the climb.

The mountain's most repeated climbing route, the Via dell'Antespigolo on the west face, was opened in 1964 by Leonardo Pretto and Bianco De Pellegrini. It climbs 600 m of the first great buttress at UIAA grades IV and IV+, and other lines date from 1924 (Angelini-Sperti) and 1967 (Pomarici-Costantini).
