Description

Would you like to step into the fabulous world of ice climbing or to improve your skills? Then join me! Let’s go to the waterfalls of Piedmont for an unforgettable winter adventure!

Piedmont is a stunning region in northwestern Italy bordering France and Switzerland. Known for its sophisticated cuisine and wine, this area also offers stunning ice climbing spots. From Valsesia to Val Varaita, there are frozen routes of every type and level.

Ice climbing is a sport that everyone can practice and does not require specific preparation. No matter if you are a beginner or an expert climber, on this day outing I’ll choose the right icefall for you, guide you and help you on the way! Of course, you will require a good fitness level.

So, if you are up for this ice climbing outing in Italy, please contact me and book your place. Let’s explore the frozen cascades of Piedmont together!

If you prefer, another option that I offer is to practice ice climbing in the Aosta Valley. Check it out here.

Mountain Guide

My name is Marco Bigatti, nicknamed “Il Biga”. I was born in Milan, I started climbing in 2006 and since then I have not been able to tear myself away from the vertical world. I turned my passion into a job, becoming Mountain Guide in October 2017, the first mountain guide that lives all the year in Sardinia.
I experience the mountains from a 360-degree point of view. I have practiced all disciplines of climbing in the Alps: rock climbing, alpinism, ice climbing , as well as ski mountaineering.

In addition to alpinism, I love pure sport climbing, seeking out the best climbing sectors throughout the entire Alpine range. But it was in Sardinia that I found a paradise of crags, in particular in the south-west of the island, where you are able to enjoy all types of climbing throughout the year.
I offer climbing day or trips for beginners or experienced climbers who need a guide, multipitch packages for those who want to live an alpine experience, climbing courses, all-inclusive climbing holiday with accommodation in our nice B&B by the sea, guided trekking and mountain biking tours.

We came into this experience with only a little experience. Marco was great. He explained everything to us. Ensured that we were both safe. Was very patient with us. Recommended a route to us that was suited for our level. He was very responsive. Provides you will the equipment you need for climbing including shoes and helmet. Would definitely recommend and do another experience with Marco.

Marco went above and beyond for our climbing trip! He was personable, friendly, and fun, making us feel very safe throughout the adventure. He took us to two shaded spots and drove us there himself. We tackled an impressive total of 7 routes! Thank you, Marco, for an awesome day out climbing. We thoroughly enjoyed your company and singing.
