Ascent to Punta Penia: the last glacial environment of the Dolomites. Together, we will reach the highest peak of the Dolomites by crossing the Marmolada glacier. Unmatched views from the summit! A highly satisfying outing.
Depending on the group, we will climb in a day (for very fit hikers) starting from the Fedaia Pass. Shortly after passing Pian dei Fiacconi, we will reach the front of the glacier from where we will set off tied and with crampons on our feet.
After crossing the glacial basin, we will ascend along the short via ferrata (of the normal route) that will lead us to the mule's back and then shortly to the Queen's summit. To break up and reduce the effort, it is possible to split the outing into 2 days, staying overnight at the guarded hut near the summit (contact me for details about this option).
