Our climbing activities are carried out by a mountain guide within UIAGM/IFMGA certified.

Besides, local mountain guides most definitely sport the best knowledge and will guarantee your safety and your fun.

PASSO STAULANZA- FORCELLA FORATA – RIFUGIO CITTA DI FIUME – PASSO STAULANZA

We will approach this vertical 1000 meters high wall, just enoght to appreciate how intimidating it appears. We then walk over a nice and little saddle, its name is Forcella Forata. From this point, a slightly downhill track takes us to the Città di Fiume refuge, where we can find a well-deserved refreshment.

Once we reach the ridge that divides Val Cordevole from Val Badia, we will enjoy the majestic scenery around us.
