In winter, Trentino’s mountains are the perfect environment for mountaineering adventures away from the traditional ski slopes of the extensive ski carousels
Trentino is a true gem for ski mountaineering lovers. Here you can choose between a huge variety of ski itineraries in the Ortles-Cevedale group, the Adamello group, the Brenta Dolomites, the Fiemme and [Fassa] (https://www.trentino.com/en/trentino/val-di-fassa/) valleys, the Pale di San Martino and Lagorai groups, as well as other, lesser known mountain ranges. Some ski mountaineering routes can be found on the snowy slopes, isolated peaks and unspoilt valleys right near the most famous skiing areas.
The mountains are a truly fascinating world also in winter, however, please be aware of the hidden risks! The mountains are unpredictable and should never be explored without the right amount of caution and the experience required for such adventures! Therefore, we recommend attending the courses proposed by the alpine and ski mountaineering schools of the S.A.T. (Società degli Alpinisti Tridentini), as well as mountain guides which can be found throughout Trentino.
The staff of the accommodation facility you stay at will be pleased to share their experience by providing you with useful advice on the ski mountaineering tours you can undertake and ensure you live unforgettable mountain adventures!
For your own safety, we invite you to follow these seven rules:
- Only choose tours that fit your abilities and those of your fellow skiers.
- Only undertake a ski tour if the weather is good and check the avalanche report beforehand.
- Always take an avalanche transceiver, shovel, probe, crampons, helmet and first aid kit with you.
- Always ask for detailed information about the route. Additional equipment such as crampons, ice axe, rope, harness, etc. may sometimes be necessary.
- Always have an up-to-date map of the area with you.
- Do not improvise. If in doubt, consult a mountain guide.
- Respect the animals and their habitat.
