Zone Adamello Presanella
Epic itinerary, the best one to reach Cima Vermiglio. It’s necessary to have a good physical condition, to be well trained and to be perfectly able to use ice axes and crampons.
Technical description
The first section will take us on rocky slopes which will introduce us to the wide northern slide. We will follow it in all his length (inclinations around 55°), while it gets thinner and thinner, we will reach the final goulotte and climb it – in four lengths of rope – up to the summit ridge. Then, we will abseil on the opposite side of the mountain, reaching the main path of Cima Presanella.
