The routes

This is one of the classic outings in the Dolomites. Great intuition enabled the first ascentionists to work their way up this immense overhanging wall. The second crux pitch, when finally freed, was a reference mark for things to come....

The Skotonata galatika requires a certain degree of experience and fitness due to its length, exposure and difficulty. Bolts were placed on lead, resulting in run-outs on the easier pitches and a first pitch, which takes natural pro. The climbing...

An elegant and classic route of its grade. The lower section takes a rather uninteresting line up steps to the left of the corner, to the ledge at half height. From here traverse right and climb up the superb, large...

The climbing is both technical and strenuous, but never excessively so, on excellent rock. Bolts were placed on lead and even though a rack isn't really necessary, some small wires may be found useful. The numerous ledges ensure that the...

This is the most popular outing on the wall, thanks to its superb line on excellent rock. It is easier than Geo and Plitschka, but the climbing is always sustained. Beware of old threads.

This is a nice route, somewhat harder and less repeated than Geo and Brunsin. Two bolts protect the cruxes, but the fifth pitch, which takes natural pro, is not to be underestimated.

This route is technical and demanding; the third pitch, which follows a difficult yellow slab and roof, is outstanding. The climbing is sustained 5/6 with a 7 crux (the roof on the third pitch). Strict ethics resulted in about 5/6...

An interesting walk which leads from Oberbozen through the forest to the earth pyramids, before discovering the enchanting small village Maria Himmelfahrt.

This is a highly rewarding climb up excellent rock. Bolts were placed on lead. The route takes the center line up the Mur de Pisciadù, a large yellow and black wall. Most of the 10 pitches are solid 6b/c, and...

An extraordinary outing up a series of glaciers to reach the 3000m summit of the highest peak in the Venediger mountain group.

The summit of the highest mountain the Tyrol offers splendid 360 degree views.

"It's an immense block of ice, big enough to provide material for half a dozen beautiful mountains. But it's just one. For many miles in both  length and width it never descends beneth 9500 feet (3078m)". This is how British...

Dragging a 6000kg 149/G cannon from Temù, located at circa 1000m altitude, to Cresta Croce above 3000m: this was an undertaking which had never been achieved previously. Few thought that this task was feasible, but in 1916 the Italian troops...

This outing takes the cable car from Passo Tonale quickly up to Passo Paradiso, and then explores the Italian First World War front via an airy traverse and splendid panoramas to reach the Città di Trento refuge.

This is a beautiful, easy and consequently highly popular traverse across the southern face of the ridge which leads from Portavescovo all the way to Passo Pordoi. The view onto the surrounding mountains is spectacular and the Marmolada, Gran Vernel...

Piz Boé is the highest summit in the Sella group, the culminating point in this vast mountain chain which extends in the center of 4 passes and dominates from above the Val di Fassa, Val Gardena, Val Badia and naturally...
