    The great summits around Cortina

    The alpine ascents around Cortina combine rock, snow and ice in a high-altitude setting that is unique in the world. Every outing is tailored to the experience of the participants and the conditions of the mountain.

    You climb roped up with a UIAGM mountain guide in a small ratio (usually 1:2), starting at dawn and returning the same day. You don't need to be an expert alpinist: good fitness and the will to walk long hours are enough.

    Best season: late June to mid-September.
