Program:

We meet at the Catores office or directly at an agreed meeting point in the valley or at the pass. After a brief gear check (rental equipment can be provided if needed), we head to one of the beautifully situated climbing crags in the valley. The "City of Stones" (Città dei Sassi) at the Sella Pass is particularly well-suited for climbing courses and, with its vast selection of routes, is one of the absolute highlights of the region.

The course program is flexible and individually adapted to your wishes or the needs of the group. Depending on the focus, the following contents can be part of the course:

  • Improvement of climbing technique and expansion of movement repertoire
  • Refinement of belaying techniques
  • Top-rope climbing
  • Learning lead climbing
  • Threading the anchor (Swiss and French methods)
  • Rope work and learn knots

Upon request, we can expand the program into a multi-day course, visiting various climbing spots throughout the region.

Services:
  • Guided by a certified IFMGA mountain guide
  • Rental of technical equipment (harness and helmet)
