Description

If you are looking for an exciting day of steep skiing, then look no further than this trip in the amazing Sella Group.

Located in the Dolomite mountains in Italy, the Sella group massif is unforgettable. There are a number of incredible peaks in the massif. They include the Piz Boe (3,151m), the Cima Pisciadu (2,985m), the Boeseekofel (2,910m), Sass Pordoi (2,952m), and many more. This collection of peaks creates the perfect location for great steep skiing.

The scenery alone is exceptional, from the Dolomites, to the Sella group massif itself. However, when you also include the four gorgeous Ladin valleys where it rests between you just can't go wrong. Those valleys include the Badia valley, the Gherdeina valley, the Fascia valley and the Fodom valley.

There are a number of famous descents in the massif, but none more than the Val Mesdi from the Pordoischarte. However, along with that descent, there is an array of others that are just as exciting. And on this trip, we will figure out which one is best for you. There is also a wide assortment of channels that include the Holzer couloir, the Sass de Forcia couloir and the couloir of the Ghiacciaio.

A lot of what we will do will depend on your abilities and ski levels. But because the Sella group is so enormous, I have no doubt that regardless of your level, we will find something just right for you.

The Sella group is a spectacular massif. It just looks exciting. It just looks like there will be thrilling steep skiing descents away from the crowds of the nearby resorts. And to put your mind at ease, I can assure that is indeed the case. So if you want to enjoy one of those steep descents, just send me a request.

I would also like to offer a 3 day hut to hut ski tour in the beautiful Val di Fassa.

Mountain Guide

Hi! I'm Renato, IFMGA guide from the Dolomites, and I work together with my colleagues Robert, Patrick & Walter (German speaking), Paolo, Matteo and Davide.

If I'm not available to guide you, one of them will take care of you.

I was born in 1961, I live in Campitello di Fassa, in the Dolomites, together with my family. I have two sons, one is a mountain guide, the other is a ski instructor. I am a certified mountain guide since 1982, an instructor of guides, alpine ski instructor and a Federal coach for ISEF.

Being in the mountains has always been my passion, guiding people, teaching them climbing, mountaineering... during the various seasons of the year. I very much enjoy drawing nice curves in fresh powder snow and discover the charm of the frozen waterfalls.

My curriculum and professional mountaineering is made of many ascents and some openings of routes in the Dolomites and the Alps. I climbed in Yosemite Valley (California), Ben Nevis (Scotland) and Norway, Greece, Spain and Sardinia. I did also several high altitude climbs like Mt Denali (Alaska), Ama Dablam (6828m), Cho Oyu (8201m), Manaslu (8163m), Shivling in India (6545m), Cotopaxi and Chimborazo in Ecuador (5897m and 6310m), Patagonia (Argentina).

Feel free to get in touch with me if you are coming in the Dolomites for skiing (alpine, freeride and ski touring), rock climbing, sport climbing and multi pitch climbing. It will be my pleasure to guide you here and let you discover my secret spots.

Etienne was an awesome guide for our one day trip. Very knowledgable and I would recommend him to anyone!

The trip was superb. We all enjoyed the day a lot. Thank you!

Swift response and accurate information provided in advance of the trip. Fantastic experience with Fabio Trivieri. Fully 5-start service. Thanks

Paolo was a fantastic guide, knowledgable, helpful and patient on a few tricky sections just to build confidence and keep the whole group happy. Also very cool sun glasses. The gear was solid and the route just right for us. Very much recommended.

We were in contact with Renato before we booked the vacation. He was not polite when we asked about the cost and informations about the accomodations of our trip in the mountains. BUT Renato couldn’t be our guide at the and, so we had Bruno as our guide. Bruno was the best guide ever for our vacation! He was very polite, funny and kind. Thanks to him we had an amazing vacation!!
