Description
If you want to get started in the exciting world of ice climbing, or you are looking to improve your skills, this journey in Sappada ice falls is just for you.
Sappada is a small village in the province of Belluno, in Northern Italy. It stands in the border between Italy and Austria, and is part of the Dolomites.
It’s a beautiful alpine valley of green hills, coniferous forests, waterfalls and lagoons.
Mount Peralba (2694 m), Pic Cjadenis (2490 m) and Mount Lastroni (2450 m), are among the highest peaks in the area.
Sappada is a reference point for ice climbers, as it offers a wide variety of ice falls. In fact, it has three areas with several routes from road-side single pitches, to 5-6 pitch routes high up in the mountains.
I strongly recommend this place for those who want to start ice climbing activity, as it has easy multi-pitch routes until 200 m. Nevertheless, we can design personalized programes for all levels, according to your wishes and expectations.
During this trip, you will use a basic ice climbing equipment, like harness, helmet, crampons and ice axes. In fact, you can rent everything there.
Please contact me if you want more information about this climbing trip in Sapadda. It will be a pleasure for me to share this amazing experience with you!

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.

Enrico was an amazing guide!!! My husband and I tackled via ferrata Punta Anna in Cortina which was challenging and exciting. Enrico was very responsive and communicative upfront, detailing the route and what we could expect. On the day of he was an excellent instructor, supportive and patient. He helped us have the best possible time out on our first via ferrata in the Dolomites. He took a ton of photos and videos during our outing which he shared with us afterwards. When we mentioned we would be in the area for another week, he went above and beyond and gave us his recommendations for the best hikes in the area. They were spot on! We would highly recommend using Enrico as a mountain guide!!
