Easy ski mountaineering tour with dinner at a mountain hut

Beyond the lifts, beyond the groomed slopes, away from the noise... back to the origin of skiing.

Do you already know how to ski and have you always been intrigued by the idea of trying ski touring? Then this experience is for you!

We propose an excursion aimed at those who want to get closer to ski-mountaineering with an ascent of around 2 hours to reach the Monte Ferro refuge at Sappada accompanied by an expert Alpine Guide, concluding the experience with a nice dinner (included in the price).

In search of the best snow, we will follow an itinerary through the UNESCO heritage mountains, a form of spiritual and physical wellness in a natural environment of absolute beauty.

What we will do

A few hours of ski mountaineering for those who want to approach this discipline gradually and with awareness. Ascent and descent technique, use of Artva, shovel and probe, evaluation of the snowpack will be the main topics.

The activity is organised every Tuesday and starts at around 17:00, the meeting point is the Regina Pacis Sanctuary in Borgata Soravia (Sappada). The ascent to the Monte Ferro Refuge will take about 2 hours. We will have dinner and then ski down in the dark equipped with a head torch. It will be an unforgettable experience!

The Monte Ferro Ref uge in Sappada is located in a pleasant position just above the arrival station of the disused chairlift, overlooked by the buttresses and the rocky wall of the mountain of the same name, and right in front of the entire beautiful sequence of peaks that from the Terza Piccola reaches the Cimon via the Clap, the Siera and the Creta Forata.

This is a proposal reserved for those who love wide, sunny spaces. It is a little-used itinerary, a little tiring only on the slope that precedes the refuge. In all, the activity lasts 4 to 5 hours.

Who it is aimed at

This activity is of an easy level. Good physical condition and a good command of skis are required.

Other information

Important: it is necessary to arrive at the meeting point 15 minutes before the time chosen for the activity.

The activity is bookable every Tuesday from January to April.
