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
Piotr
Enrico is a super nice guy. He speaks very good English and was helpful through the entire trip. We have climbed Mt. Civetta and later did an off-piste to the bottom
Andrew
I couldn’t be happier with the experience I had during my 3 days of ice climbing instruction. My guides Enrico and Livio were both top notch; highly knowledgeable and very professional in their approach to teaching the skills needed to be successful in the mountains. We progressed for both skill and level of challenge each of the 3 days and in a different location each day. They also arraigned to meet at my hotel for convenience. It was an amazing adventure; I’d highly recommend both instructors to anyone looking to take their ice climbing skills to the next level!

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.
