Description

Enjoy stunning views and some fun climbing routes on this 6-day hut to hut hiking and via ferrata tour in the Sexten Dolomites.

This hiking and via ferrata tour combines everything you want out of a trip to the mountains! You'll have the time to wander through pretty alpine meadows, you'll challenge yourself with steep climbs and you'll get your adrenaline pumping with exciting via ferrata routes. Some of this routes were built during the First World War!

Participants need to be able to walk between 5 and 7 hours per day. Take into account that terrain may be challenging at times, so you need to be in good physical condition. For the via ferrata, you also have to be comfortable with heights.

We will meet in Innichen, a pretty Tyrolean town. From there, we'll take the lift up to Haunold hut from where our adventure begins! During the next couple of days, you'll get to experience everything the Dolomites have to offer.

One of the highlights will be the sunrise over Drei Zinnen on the last day. If the weather is good, we'll get to enjoy and photograph the sun rising over these mountains, bathing them in red light. You won't believe the views!

However, if you're a via ferrata fan and would like to take a look at a more dedicated program, check out my 6-day via ferrata tour in the Kitzbühel Alps.

Contact me if you have any questions you may have regarding this hiking and via ferrata tour. I’ll be happy to help you plan a very exciting week in the stunning Sexten Dolomites!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
