Description

Pinnacles, towers, spires, and a great variety of colors and snow make the Dolomites a stellar part of this breathtaking landscape. Located in Northern Italy, these mountains seem to belong to a fantasy book. And you can be a part of it!

Can you imagine a better place for your splitboarding experience?

We will meet in Cortina d’Ampezzo. From there, we’ll climb to Rolle Pass, in the Italian region of Trentino, from where our 6-day splitboarding tour begins. Over the next 6 days, our traverse will take us across some of the most famous mountains in the Dolomites, including Marmolada (3343m), the highest peak in this mountain range, and some of the peaks in the Cortina Valley. Our tour will end in Sesto, a winter resort town located in the Italian region of South Tyrol.

After almost a week of snow, wonderful views, splitboarding and comfy nights at scenic huts (including one located in the middle of the Marmolada glacier), you will be asking for more days off work!

Please notice that this activity requires previous experience in splitboarding and a good fitness level.

If you meet these requirements and are ready for a fun week, book this trip now. You will never forget the beauty of the Dolomites! The tours start every Saturday between February and March.

About the guide

Paolo

Mountain Guide

I was born in Bologna and I live now in Cortina d'Ampezzo, in the Dolomites.
I am passionate about the mountains and travelling. These took me to ski and climb in the 5 continents.
In particular, skiing allowed me to discover wonderful places as well as people. My favourite style of travelling is when I get to do it with skis on my feet.
In 1997 I started organizing ski touring cruises in the Lyngen Alps, which I have done 20 times since then.
My other passion is telemark. In fact I am an Alpine Telemarker Guide, and I like to go to the most remote corners of the world.
During the summer, I love rock climbing in the Dolomites and practicing mountain bike.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
