Full description
Discover ski mountaineering with an introductory day designed also for those with no experience in this discipline on the magnificent routes of thePaganella Plateau in Trentino.
Accompanied by an Alpine Guide, we will discover the techniques of ski mountaineering on easy uphill routes and downhill on groomed trails or forest roads. We will discover how to climb with skins, the principles of snow science, learning to identify the safest tracks and possible dangers to watch out for, and important self-rescue lessons (the use of Arva, shovel and probe).
The activity takes place in a free environment with a breathtaking panorama where the spires of the Brenta Dolomites dominate.
What we will do
The meeting is set in the morning in Andalo in the province of Trento, where the group, consisting of a minimum of one to a maximum of six participants, will meet with the Alpine Guide who will accompany you throughout the day.
From this point, numerous itineraries can be chosen, and the Guide will identify the best according to weather conditions and the level of participants. Some examples are the climbs to Cima Paganella, Cima Canfedin and Cima Croz dell'Altissimo, all of which are easy routes suitable for beginners and equally satisfying from a naturalistic point of view.
Whichever itinerary is chosen, the hike involves a difference in altitude, both active and passive, of between 600 and 800 metres. After the ascent with skins, we will descend by carefully choosing the best route, always accompanied by the mountain guide, until we return to the starting point.
The activity ends around mid-afternoon.
Who it is aimed at
For the ascent, an endurance capacity of 600/800 metres is required. For the descent, the ability to advance nimbly in a snowplough is sufficient.
Other information
Attention! Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the start time of the activity.
The activity is bookable from January to May - depending on seasonal weather conditions - and is for private groups of 1 to 4 participants.
