Description

Experience one of the greatest ski-touring venues in South Tyrol, Italy. The Ortles Alps promise extraordinary summits, such as Monte Cevedale and Zufallspitzen, and amazing slopes. Join me to discover a section of the Eastern Italian Alps you’ll never forget!

This five-day tour begins with a hike to the beautiful Marteller Hut, located 2.580 meters above sea level, through the Zufall Hut (2.265m). The next day, I’ll take you up to Monte Cavedale (3.769m) to ski down through the Cedec Valley into the Fornokessel. Finally we will hike towards the delightful Branca Hut (2.493m), where you’ll be able to relish the cuisine of its famous chef.

We will spend the following two days ski-touring around the glacier-covered summits that the Branca Hut has to offer. Some of them include Punta San Matteo (3.678m) and Pizzo Tresero (3.594m). On our day 4 we’ll hike to the Palon de la Mare (3.708m) and ski down the Vedretta Glacier in order to reach the Larcher Hut (2.608m). On the last day, we’ll move to the Fürkelescharte (3.032m) and the Zufallferner, to enjoy a fantastic ski descent to the starting point.

The adventure around the Ortles Alps is recommended for experienced skiers in good physical shape, since we’ll be climbing up to 1.500 vertical meters per day.

If you’re a winter and snow lover, join me in this unique experience. Book your trip now! I look forward to skiing with you.

For almost 150 years mountain guides from Sesto/Sexten have been taking enthusiastic people on the mountains. Their long-time tradition has seen famous alpinists and legendary first ascents.

We, the new generation of the Alpinschule Sexten – Drei Zinnen, also turned our big passion into our job. The fascination of the mountains urges us all year round onto the local Dolomites and around the globe.

Saya

I went with Mark Oberlechner who is a great guide!!! And we took the 4 day tour so not this one.

Jacque

Our trip with Herbert was fabulous! He was very accommodating, picking us up from our hotel and then dropping us off at the train station. The via ferrata itself was great, we had a blast. Herbert guided us well through the tougher sections. I felt safe and confident the entire time. We would absolutely book Herbert again, and I was very happy with explore-share. Thanks!

Our guide, Christian, was very experienced and knoweldgeable about the area. The climb is suitable for both beginners and the more confident. Would definately recommend.
