SKI TOURING
IN THE DOLOMITES

SKI TOURING IN CORTINA D'AMPEZZO

Experience the magic of winter in the Dolomites on skis

Ski mountaineering is an incredibly satisfying sport: see your own track drawn on fresh snow during the climb, admire unspoiled views in the silence and tranquility of winterappreciate the magic and purity of the fresh snow, descend along snowy slopes and silent valleys outside the crowded areas and the ski slopes. Simply an unforgettable experience. Finally, the descent will give you an amazing sense of freedom and joy! After conquering a peak skiining up with your own strength and abilities, taking the skins off and skiing down into the fresh powder is just fantastic. And to complete the experience there’s nothing better than stopping in a rifugio for a nice hearty meal!

In Cortina d'Ampezzo many ski touring excursions are located within the Natural Park of the Ampezzo Dolomites, a magical area in which to stay in total harmony with nature.

For ski touring special skis and boots are needed. During the ascent, climbing skins are used to provide sufficient grip for skiing steeply uphill. A defining characteristic of ski touring bindings are free heels to enable skiers to move smoothly. In addition, ski crampons can be attached when conditions are particularly icy or the grade is too steep for skins. Once you reach the summit you swich bindings in downhill mode and you can enjoy a magical descent in the fresh snow!

You can choose itineraries of different lengths and difficulty: from very easy groomed tracks to challenging itineraries with mountaineering sections where you might need to use ice axe and crampons to reach the peaks and descend along steep couloirs.

ski touring in complete safety

An unforgettable experience amidst breathtaking views

To live an unforgettable experience and discover the most enchanting itineraries of the Dolomites, it is strongly recommended to be accompanied by a IFMGA certified local mountain guide. Indeed, unlike the summer season, paths are covered by snow and it is therefore not so easy to find your way around. Moreoer, it is very important to know how to read snow conditions to understand avalanche risks. Finally, local mountain guides know where to find the best snow and which ones are the most spectacular, scenic and less crowded spots for a fantastic descent!

During ski mountaineering excursions it is mandatory to always have avalanche safety gear (Artva, shovel and probe).
