I am glad to propose a new adventure in the Dolomites: a 4-day guided ski tour around the Dolomites.
One of the highlights of this ski tour in the Dolomites is the variety of options and places to enjoy. Therefore, I have planned two main programs so that you can choose the most suitable for you. Of course, you can also ask me for any other ski touring spot of the Dolomites.
OPTION #1:
Guided ski touring traverse of the National Park of Lagazuoi-Fanes-Sennes-Braies.
This national park in the north of the Dolomites is one of the most wild and natural areas. In this area, there are the only Refugios (Hut) kept open during the winter time. These huts have the main services like a mountain hotel, with private rooms, lunch and dinner services, showers, sauna, and others.
The tour starts at the Falzarego pass and with a ski tour up to the Lagazuoi hut where we spend the night. On the second day, we ski down to Fanes Valley through the famous Scotoni saddle, and we reach the Fanes hut for the night. On the third day, we skin up to Ciamin saddle, and ski down to the Sennes hut for the night. On the last day, we move up to the Ricegogn pass and down to Braies Lake. With a transfer, we move back to the cars left at the Falzarego pass.
OPTION #2:
Guided ski touring to discover all the Dolomites.
There are many opportunities at different levels. This tour can fit everybody from those who want to do easy stuff to those who want a very hard itinerary.
The best option is to have accommodation in the small villages around Alleghe/Selva di Cadore or Cortina in an apartment or hotel; I’ll be happy to help you with the organization. By the accommodation, we will move around the Dolomites to discover the best part and ski touring itinerary (Marmolada, Tofana, Passo Giau, Passo Falzarego, Civetta Mountain); more or less the transfer takes no more than one hour though it is usually much less.
Both of them are excellent skiing spots, ideal for the enjoyment of basic-intermediate and advanced skiers. These tours can be modified to adapt to all the skier levels. Besides that, during these four days, we will reach different points each night, having the best views of the Dolomites.
Moreover, I can offer you several starting points according to your convenience and proximity. Please find this information at the end of the description.
Whatever option you choose, the ski touring trip starts the night before with an introductory briefing.

Mountain Guide
I started my career as an aerospace engineer, my first passion and then became a full-time IFMGA mountain guide, my second passion, since 2013. Working as a mountain guide gratifies me a lot. I enjoy very much transmitting my knowledge about the mountains and its activities to my friends and clients.
I’m based in the Dolomites where I have climbed most of the mountain surroundings us here, including “Via attraverso il Pesce” in Marmolada and “Captain sky-hook” in Civetta. I also enjoy a lot guiding in the rest of the Alps, ice climbing, ski touring, freeride skiing, rock climbing and mountaineering.
Feel free to contact me if you want to live a great adventure in the Dolomites or anywhere else in the Alps, during the winter or the summer. It will be a great pleasure for me to guide you and allow you to reach your goal. I work with other mountain guides in the Veneto area, such as Filippo, Massimo, and my brother Daniele. If I am unavailable on the date you are interested in coming climbing, skiing, or engaging in other activities with me, I can connect you with one of them.

Enrico was an amazing guide!!! My husband and I tackled via ferrata Punta Anna in Cortina which was challenging and exciting. Enrico was very responsive and communicative upfront, detailing the route and what we could expect. On the day of he was an excellent instructor, supportive and patient. He helped us have the best possible time out on our first via ferrata in the Dolomites. He took a ton of photos and videos during our outing which he shared with us afterwards. When we mentioned we would be in the area for another week, he went above and beyond and gave us his recommendations for the best hikes in the area. They were spot on! We would highly recommend using Enrico as a mountain guide!!

Our guide Filippo was fantastic. We insisted on exploring the Delle Trincee which turned out to be outside the ability of our group. Filippo was patient and fun and helped us traverse several sections that matched our ability while keeping our spirits high. The equipment was excellent, the communication with the outfitter was excellent. If you're looking for a guide to help you explore the Dolomites, we had a great experience with Enrico and his team.

We had the most amazing via ferrata experience in Cortina! This was our first time in Cortina and first time doing a via ferrata. Enrico was our guide and he was extremely knowledgeable of the area and was also very attentive to safety. We had such a fun time and would recommend him and explore share to all of our friends!
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
