Description
The Dolomites are probably the most famous mountains of the Italian Alps. This 5-day expedition is your chance to explore this fabulous area on splitboard: join me!
Stretching from the River Adige to the Piave Valley, the Dolomite Mountains are part of the Southern Limestone Alps. These world-famous peaks are located in northeastern Italy, in the provinces of Belluno, South Tyrol and Trentino.
This 5-day splitboarding adventure will take us from the Pala Group (Pale of San Martino) all the way to Lake Braies (also known as Pragser Wildsee and Lake Prags). We will enjoy awesome descents on the Marmolada, the Sella Group, and the Fanes/Sennes Group.
Using the Superski Dolomiti lifts only when we need to, we will climb up to 700 meters per day. Then, after splitboarding all day long on top quality snow, we will stay in charming mountain huts and eat delicious Italian food!
The classic starting point of this expedition is San Martino di Castrozza, in the most southern part of the Dolomites. However, I am very flexible and we can start from other places too. You can check the complete itinerary below!
Keep in mind that this trip is suitable for at least intermediate splitboarders with some mountaineering experience and a good fitness level. Of course, I will be there along the way to help and guide you!
So, if you are up for this amazing splitboarding experience in the Dolomites, please contact me. I am sure that this 5-day alpine expedition will be unique!

We had a fantastic day with Alesandro in La Thuile. It had not snowed much for over 3 weeks, so he recommended that we go Ski Touring, and we managed to find fresh tracks. Could not have gone better!

This tour was unanimously my family\'s favorite part of our trip. The view from the top is the most stunning 360 view I\'ve ever seen. Enrico, our guide, was clear, calm and engaging. We had a person who is terrified of heights, and Enrico did an excellent job of balancing patient encouragement with determined push. For those more fearless who are experienced hikers and climbers, this particular via ferrata may be a bit underwhelming. A few of us wanted more of a challenge. Overall, fantastic.

We had a great experience with Mr.Enrico Geremia for our via ferrata trip up Marmolada. Enrico was a friendly guide and did not compromise with any of the safety equipment. We felt secure all the while with Enrico. We would certainly recommend our friends who have plans to hike the Dolomites in the future to use this platform :)

It. Was. So. Amazing. The trek was everything I hoped it would be and more. Enrico was a super guide - he was friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and I could tell he really loves sharing the Dolomites with people. He organized a fantastic trip - the huts we stayed in were amazing and the scenery was unbelievable.

Had an amazing time with Enrico and Mauro. The views are just incredible and it was great to do something a bit different from just walking/hiking. They provided all the equipment and knew exactly where we were going and even took photos for us along the way which made the whole experience great. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to via ferrata in the Dolomites!

Enrico was a great guide. He gave us some history of the mountain while climbing and took photos for us while hiking up to Punta Penia. Very professional and helpful guide!

A 60 ans, j\'avais besoin de prouver que mon organisme était encore capable de se surpasser. C\'était un test pour l\'ascension du KILI. Attention prévenir les novices comme moi à bien s\'alimenter lors de l\'ascension sous peine de manquer d\'énergie dans les 100 derniers mètres de l\'ascension du Grand Paradis. Aventure inoubliable. Merci à Andréa.
