Description

The Piz Boe (3,152m) is a fantastic peak in the Sella Group in the Dolomites of Italy. In fact it is the highest peak in the entire Sella Group massif. And on this day trip you will get to reach the top by way of the thrilling and incredibly scenic Cesare  Piazetta via ferrata.

Like all via ferratas, the Cesare Piazetta via ferrata is an exciting, unforgettable experience. It will feel like you are walking on the walls of the mountain itself. And while such a concept can seem frightening at first, you can rest assured that you will be safe and secure at all times.

This trip will last between 4 and 6 hours. And every minute of the way you will get to admire the beauty of the Sella Group massif and the Dolomite mountain range.

Beginning at Passo Pordoi, we will make our way along a hiking trail until we reach the start of the Cesare Piazetta via ferrata. Once the via ferrata begins, the first 100 meters or so are demanding. As a result, it is important that participants on this trip are in good physical condition. As the day progresses, the via ferrata will get easier. Hence giving you more time to appreciate the priceless views. And when you get to  the top of the Piz Boe, you will get to enjoy the best views of all.

If you like adventure and fantastic views of great peaks, this trip is for you. So send me a request and enjoy the Cesare Piazetta via ferrata. I look forward to hearing from you.

I can also lead you on the oldest via ferrata in the Sella Group, the Mesules via ferrata on this day trip.

About the guide

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

Paolo and Patrick were our guides for Gaudeamos (12 pitch max of 6a) near Falzarego Pass. Paolo was communicative ahead of time in making arrangements and ensuring our climb matched our desires. During the climb, they were safe and efficient and all 4 members of our party came away from the outing feeling challenged and excited about the day. Overall, we had a fantastic day out and we were able to tackle a much larger & more grand objective than we otherwise could have on our own without our guides. Thanks Paolo & Patrick!!

Renato was professional and a great guide! He took the time to point out the different mountain ranges and was very friendly. He took many pictures of us during the trip which was very nice and we appreciated it. I always felt safe during the trip. The pace of trekking was great. I highly recommend this 2 day, 1 night trip!

I am leaving a 1* review for the absolutely terrible, argumentative, and unprofessional service I am currently receiving from Renato after our trip. This was meant to be a full day excursion but our guide Patrick sensibly suggested that we cut it down to half a day to avoid the stormy weather in the afternoon. Patrick told us that we would be issued a partial refund as a result of this. We agreed. It is now several weeks after our trip and Renato is going against Patrick's promise and is saying they cannot offer a partial refund. I am currently wasting my time trying to get Explore Share to sort this out and Renato will not stop emailing me. I've literally said in writing that I don't want to engage with Renato anymore, but he won't respect that. I really don't want to spend my time arguing with someone over email who refuses to live up to the promise of their own employee. Patrick was an excellent guide and the trip we did was very fun. I would be leaving a full 5* review if it were not for this nonsense with Renato.

I went climbing with Robert up to the Torre del Vajolet. Robert was most excellent and profesional: timely, extremely knowledgable and very fast. We were the first group on and off the tower. It was an incredible day and my only regret is that I didn't have time for more climbing. I will defintely return to the Dolomites and climb again with Robert. I HIGHLY recommend Robert and Renatto and team Bernard. They are AWESOME!

We had an excellent day sport climbing at Cinque Torri with Matteo. The guide was very professional and friendly and helped us learn to improve our outdoor climbing.
