Guided tours
From Dolomite classics to 4,000ers
Every tour has its own character: some demand lots of stamina, others strength and climbing technique. Here is a selection of my most popular summits – I’m happy to advise you personally on which one suits you.

Dolomite summits
The great normal routes: stand on the Cima Grande, the Langkofel or the Hohe Gaisl once in your life – safely roped up, with local route knowledge.
Cima Grande – normal route
2.999 m
Standing on top of the Cima Grande once in a lifetime – every mountaineer’s dream.
Cima Ovest – normal route
2.973 m
Technically a little easier than the Cima Grande, but trickier route-finding.
Cima Piccola – normal route
2.857 m
The slimmest and steepest of the Three Peaks – with a spectacular abseil descent.
Zwölferkofel – normal route
3.094 m
Adventure away from the crowds – with a night at the Büllelejoch hut.
Hohe Gaisl – normal route
3.146 m
One of the most imposing and complex mountains in the Dolomites.
Langkofel – normal route
3.181 m
Long, varied and never really hard – a great classic since 1869.
9 tours
Classic rock climbs
Historic lines and hidden gems – many of them on my home turf of Fanes, Puez and Cortina. As a local guide I can often drive up to the hut: less approach, more climbing.
Punta Frida
2.792 m
The elegant, often overlooked tower of the Three Peaks – rarely a queue here.
Preuss Tower – Preuss crack
In the footsteps of Paul Preuss: the striking crack-corner of 1911.
Neunerspitze – Messner direttissima
2.968 m
Friction slabs, water runnels and Messner history – a day tour thanks to driving access to the Lavarella hut.
Peitlerkofel north face – Hruschka & Messner
2.875 m
600 metres of north face above the Peitler meadows – my home mountain, visible from my bedroom window.
Sas dai Tamersc – Samblana & Fluch der Kamine
My crag on the doorstep: a 15-minute approach, one of my own first ascents and spectacular chimneys.
Torre del Lago – Via dall’Oglio & Pisoni-Stenico
A steep tower above Lake Lagazuoi – with a dream corner at a moderate grade.
Scotoni south-west face – Lacedelli & Fachiri
2.874 m
A face considered unclimbable until 1952 – and the legendary Fachiri route of 1972.
Tofana di Rozes – south face
3.225 m
An 800-metre labyrinth above Cortina – from the 1901 Dimai route to the Costantini-Apollonio and its infamous ‘donkey’s back’.
Monte Agner – north ridge
2.872 m
The longest climb in the Dolomites – with a deluxe bivouac after about 20 pitches.

High alpine & 4,000ers
Over firn, rock and ice to the highest summits of the Alps – from the Ortler to the Matterhorn. I know these routes from dozens of ascents.

4.478 m
The emblem of the Alps – via the Hörnli ridge or the longer Lion ridge, always as a 1:1 rope team.
Piz Bernina Biancograt & Piz Palü
4.049 m
The ‘stairway to heaven’ to the only 4,000er of the Eastern Alps – combined with the Palü traverse.
Ortler – normal route, Hintergrat & Meran route

South Tyrol’s highest mountain – over rock and glacier, a little different every year.
