The routes

Highly rewarding climb in a deep drip, isolated and solitary. The final pitch can be seen from the road, just before Passo d'Eira looking north (coming from Bormio).

A relatively demanding, nice climb set in a beautiful and isolated part of the Alps. Danger of avalanches: beware of snow conditions.

The walk-in is long but nevertheless well worth the effort: the climbing is splendid and relatively straightforward, set in a wild and isolated habitat. The icefall Bondì Ghibinet can be seen opposite, suspended in the upper section of a deep...

Splendid free-standing drip, unfortunately rather short and with a long walk-in. Alternatively, it can be reached by climbing either Shining Ice or Red Bull and then traversing south to the base of this drip.

Nice icefall, unfortunately somewhat short. From afar it looks as if the vertical section could be much longer, and it gets its name because of this. A great climb for beginners, in a fantastic setting.

Beautiful icefall in a panoramic setting above the lake. Despite the orientation the ice is almost always terrible, rendering this climb extremely delicate.

The icefall is comprised of two vertical sections that lead up a sunny rocky wall. A belay is equipped with bolts before the top of the first vertical section, on the right. The second pitch is more continuous with circa...

Very beautiful and highly rewarding icefall. Beware of the thickness of the ice. Water almost always runs within the fall. It requires a long period of intense cold to form completely.

A splendid icefall, physical and unrelenting. Plenty of ice on the upper section, unlike the first lower section, where the little ice that forms tends to deteriorate fairly quickly.

Very beautiful drip. Carefully analyse the thickness of the ice and, given its orientation, the temperature! 

Passo del Dito is one of the most desired off-piste itineraries in the Alps, a descent for many but nevertheless not for everyone. The +50° upper section is no wider than two meters across and this is best descended with...

Cima Le Sorti is one of the few south-facing offpiste descents. Which translates into: pure fun with good snow and low temperatures, slush when the temperature rises! Here are two itineraries, the first is better suited to skiers seeing that...

The name may arouse fear, but after a few “Paradisi”, no one fears the devil! I clearly remember the first time I descended this itinerary with Andreas Sarchi, whilst training to become a Mountain Guide. When we reached the col...

Perhaps the most famous off-piste route on the Tonale, Fuoripista Cantiere tackles the upper slopes of the beautiful Val Presena. Also known as Sgualdrino, this valley is a true paradise for off-piste skiing. In the 1970's the owners of the...

A great wide, north-facing slope with a series of different descents. The Paradiso is ideal terrain to learn off-piste skiing seeing that you can return to the groomed piste whenever you want. This itinerary is almost always in condition, even...

This is definitely the most classic trip in the area of the Westfalenhaus refuge. As soon as the conditions allow you to rise above 3000 metres of altitude, a track will appear along the Langental which will lead you to...
