On the first day, at Lake Misurina, we take the bus that brings us to the Auronzo Hut beneath the south face of the Tre Cime. From there, we follow a wide path to the base of the Cima Piccola, where we prepare for the climb. Our plan is to climb the Innerkofler route (400 m, grade IV), which has also become established as the Normal Route. The route follows the most obvious system of craks and ledges on the wall. The difficulty increases with height, and the crux pitch is the final one. At the top, there is a small cross and roughly two square meters of space to rest. We also get a fine view of the steep north faces of the Cima Piccola and Cima Grande. The descent is very gentle on the legs, as we rappel the entire way down. The tour takes approximately 5 hours.

On the second day, the morning routine is the same – the bus ride and a walk on the wide path. This time, however, we continue about 20 minutes farther, reaching the point where the northern and southern sides of the massif meet. From here, we can see the imposing north faces of the Tre Cime for the first time. It immediately becomes clear why this is the most photographed mountain in the Dolomites. After taking our own photos, we head to the base of the Dibona route (600 m, IV+) on Cima Grande and prepare to climb. The line follows an arete between the east and north faces, and for a moment one might even say that the route weaves its way onto the north face. Unlike yesterday’s climb on Cima Piccola, the difficulty decreases with altitude. The hardest pitches are at the bottom, while higher up the face becomes less steep. After a short downclimb from the fore-summit, we quickly reach the main summit, where well-earned rest awaits. The descent follows the Normal Route, which includes extensive downclimbing and several rappels. The tour takes approximately 8 hours.

Additional tour options:

• There are many more, both well-known and lesser-known faces in the Dolomites with routes of various difficulties, for example: the south face of Tofana, the south face of Piz Ciavazzes, the south face of Marmolada, the north face of Crozzon di Brenta, the north face of Sass Maor, and many others. It is practically impossible to present all of them on a website, so I invite you to contact me — together we can create a program tailored to your abilities and wishes.
