Description

Join me on this frozen adventure by climbing the Goulotte Holzknecht in Sassolungo (3,181m)! 

Also known as Langkofel, Sassolungo (3,181m) is the highest mountain of the Langkofel Group in the Dolomite Mountains. My invitation is to join me on this ice climbing trip to the Goulotte Holzknecht, a very nice corridor where the tool we will mostly use will be ice axes and crampons

Beautiful to see in the afternoon as they reflect the sunlight, the goulottes are lines of ice that creep into the mountain crevices in winter. The Raggio Goulotte  starts about 100 meters below the Cengia dei Fassani, where 300 meters downhill we will find the Demetz Refuge (2687 meters). As a true goulotte, it continues for another 3 lengths in the canal up to a characteristic hole formed by a stuck stone.

From here, we will continue to the left climbing on continuous mixed passages .While climbing this beautiful vertical wall of ice, to the right we will walk through the Spallon Waterfall along the canal of the SSE Point of Punta Rosmarie and after another 200 meters, we will reach the beautiful Spallone summit!

So if you are ready for this ice climbing adventure, request to book this trip!

If you are looking for another winter program, you can also join me on this One-day winter climbing in Cima Grande di Lavaredo!

    Mountain Guide

    I started my career as an aerospace engineer, my first passion and then became a full-time IFMGA mountain guide, my second passion, since 2013. Working as a mountain guide gratifies me a lot. I enjoy very much transmitting my knowledge about the mountains and its activities to my friends and clients.

    I’m based in the Dolomites where I have climbed most of the mountain surroundings us here, including “Via attraverso il Pesce” in Marmolada and “Captain sky-hook” in Civetta. I also enjoy a lot guiding in the rest of the Alps, ice climbing, ski touring, freeride skiing, rock climbing and mountaineering.

    Feel free to contact me if you want to live a great adventure in the Dolomites or anywhere else in the Alps, during the winter or the summer. It will be a great pleasure for me to guide you and allow you to reach your goal. I work with other mountain guides in the Veneto area, such as Filippo, Massimo, and my brother Daniele. If I am unavailable on the date you are interested in coming climbing, skiing, or engaging in other activities with me, I can connect you with one of them.

    What people are saying about Enrico & Team

    Jessica

    Marco took us out for a day of climbing and he was great. He was flexible as we needed to change the date at late notice and also slightly adapt the day as a result but he was really helpful and made it such an enjoyable experience. Having had a bad experience with a guide previously we felt very safe and grateful to have had Marco to lead us this time

    Wallace

    Livio was exceptionally skilled and very patient. He gave great directions and we made it to the top. It was an outstanding experience. I would highly recommend Livio and explore-share as a guide service.

    Climbing Tre Cime di Lavaredo via the Dibona Ridge with Enrico was an unforgettable adventure. The views were stunning, everything was perfectly timed, and I felt completely safe throughout the climb. Enrico explained everything clearly, and I trusted him 100%. It was not only a challenge, but also a lot of fun and a real pleasure for me. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide — I highly recommend him!
