Alpine routes in Trentino

This is a particularly intense stage, best suited to experts, with a couple of enjoyable technical stretches and a final descent that’ll put your knees to the test. On the bright side, it offers jaw-dropping scenery of immense variety: from the rocky realms at the start, to the pastoral flatland surrounding Val Trivena at the end.

This stage is very long, though it can be broken up, with significant altitude changes. However, the reward is immense: it is one of the most beautiful parts of the entire Path of Peace. You’ll have the chance to admire many of the most famous Dolomite mountain groups, one after another, including the Pale di San Martino.

A tour to the highest mountain in Trentino that is demanding in terms of fitness but not too technically difficult.

"It is probably the most rewarding route [on the Presanella] for the classic mountaineer, for those who love the high mountains, the rugged terrain, the classic mixed terrain where crampons are hardly ever taken off your feet, and the breathtaking views." There is probably not much to add to this characterisation by a local mountain guide. The route is (incomprehensibly) little travelled and leads over an impressive glacier and a beautiful granite ridge to the highest peak standing entirely in Trentino. With the north-east ridge and the descent via the normal route to Rifugio Denza - as described here - or to Rifugio Segantini, the result is an impressive round tour. (Attention: the marked track is only schematic!!!)

Moderate high tour via the normal route (glacier) to the Queen of the Dolomites, from the car park at Lago di Fedaia.

The fact that tours in the Adamello Group are not necessarily synonymous with long glacier hikes, but that there are also great ridge climbs on offer, can be experienced on Carè Alto, the south-eastern cornerstone of the massif. The east ridge (Via Cerana) in particular seems to be relatively little frequented and offers beautiful, moderate climbing in tonalite rock. With the exception of the starting wall (III), the technical difficulties do not exceed those of the normal route from the north. The unique combination of the light-coloured tonalite, the wide glacier surfaces and the Mediterranean ambience are sure to leave a lasting impression.

A beautiful and popular classic alpine tour with an ascent from Sulden via the Schaubach hut and the Suldenferner to the Suldenspitze with an overnight stay at the Casati hut. On the following day, the route leads through the north flank, which is up to 40° steep, to Monte Cevedale and back down to the Sulden cable car via the same route.

From the Casati hut to the Cevedale and the crossing of the Zufallspitze with descent to the Zufall hut.
