Description
Famous for everything from amazing views to an unrivaled collection of via ferrata spots, the Dolomites in Italy are truly amazing. And for 5 wonderful days, I would like to guide you on a ski mountaineering adventure in the Brenta Dolomites.
Each day of this trip will be different. On the first day, we will focus primarily on reviewing safety and climbing techniques. We will review how to use the self-rescue ARTVA kit, how to create an ARTVA field as well as go over lessons on ski mountaineering progression techniques. And on the following 4 days, we will go on ski mountaineering trips in different areas of the amazing Brenta Dolomites.
Some examples of where we will go include the top of Prato Fiorito, the top of Soran, the Top of Sella and the Pala dei Mughi. Each one of these spots will undoubtedly thrill you and provide you with exceptional skiing opportunities as well as views.
Since we will be skiing in the mountains, it is important that participants on this trip have prior skiing experience. You should also be in good physical condition as well.
Ski mountaineering in the Brenta Dolomites is an experience you will never forget. It is exciting, beautiful and varied enough to make every day its own unique adventure. To join a group and start ski mountaineering, just send me a request.

Mountain Guide
My name is Marco Bigatti, nicknamed “Il Biga”. I was born in Milan, I started climbing in 2006 and since then I have not been able to tear myself away from the vertical world. I turned my passion into a job, becoming Mountain Guide in October 2017, the first mountain guide that lives all the year in Sardinia.
I experience the mountains from a 360-degree point of view. I have practiced all disciplines of climbing in the Alps: rock climbing, alpinism, ice climbing , as well as ski mountaineering.
In addition to alpinism, I love pure sport climbing, seeking out the best climbing sectors throughout the entire Alpine range. But it was in Sardinia that I found a paradise of crags, in particular in the south-west of the island, where you are able to enjoy all types of climbing throughout the year.
I offer climbing day or trips for beginners or experienced climbers who need a guide, multipitch packages for those who want to live an alpine experience, climbing courses, all-inclusive climbing holiday with accommodation in our nice B&B by the sea, guided trekking and mountain biking tours.

We had an amazing experience with Marco! He is super professional, very easy to communicate with, and took us to incredible climbing spots. Marco is reliable and made sure we could enjoy climbing in a way that felt both safe and exciting. Thanks to him, we had such a fun and unforgettable adventure. Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Guide Marco was great and kept me safe and informed throughout the trip. Ok trip b/c of lighting. Also, I was tired due to allergies and this wasnt best time for me to go up. Also, after coming back home I found out that we had used the whole trail through the moraine at the bottom of the glacier when in reality a guidebook I had showed we should have the upper part of the trail on the ridge (above moraine) which would have avoided much walk in the unstable rocks. We took that part of the trail on the descent but could have used it on the way up as well, according to my guidebook on mt blanc. Probably wouldnt have changed too much but contributed to my tiredness from, in part, due to my lack of experience on moraine/rock filled trails. Overall a good experience though
William
He was extremely skilled and educated on the surrounding area and was very flexible with anything I wanted to do.

Marco helped us get accustomed with the gear, belaying and all that and we felt safe all the way. This was our first multi pitch experience and is sure was the highlight of our trip! Hope to come again 🤗
