PROGRAM
Day 1: Demetz Route
We meet at the car park directly on Gardena Pass or alternatively in Klausen at the motorway entrance. After a short gear check, we hike up towards the start of our route on Gran Cir. The 9 pitches fly by. The climbing on the Demetz Route is varied and interesting – overall, a very beautiful route.
On the summit, an impressive panorama awaits us – both towards Val Gardena and towards Gadertal, with some of the most beautiful Dolomite faces perfectly in view. An ideal place to choose your next project and dream a little about the climbs to come. We return to Gardena Pass via the normal route, with a short via ferrata section.
Total time: 5 h | ↑ 450 m | ↓ 450 m | Difficulty: V (UIAA)
Any changes to the program that may be necessary for various reasons (weather, conditions, accommodation booking situation, etc.) will always be made in consultation with the participants.
